Question

What is the slope of the line that goes through (0,0) (5,1)

Answer 1

Let

`A(0,0)\\B(5,1)`

we know that

the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

`m=((y2-y1))/((x2-x1))`

Substitute the values in the formula

`m=((1-0))/((5-0))`

`m=(1)/(5)`

therefore

the answer is the option b

the slope is equal to
`(1)/(5)`

Answer 2

Hey there!

In order to solve this problem, we can use the slope given two points formula:

y2-y1/x2-x1

Now, we can plug in our points to get:

1-0/5-0 = 1/5

Your answer is 1/5, or B.

Hope this helps!
