Question

Calculate the slope of the line between these pair of points: (5,4) and (7,6)

Answer 1

To find the slope of the line, use the coordinates of the given points on the following formula:

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

Where m is the slope, y1 and y2 are the y coordinates of the points and x1 and x2 are the x coordinates of the points:

`m=(6-4)/(7-5)=(2)/(2)=1`

The slope of the line is 1.
