Question

What is the slope of the line whose equation is y-4=(x-2)?6543qu6543+2w9(0,-1)(2,4)2 3 4 5 6 x

Answer 1

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given to be:

`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`

where

`\begin{gathered} m=slope \\ (x_1,y_1)=point\text{ }on\text{ }the\text{ }line \end{gathered}`

The equation of the line is given to be:

`y-4=(5)/(2)(x-2)`

This means that the slope is 5/2.
