Question

Given the two points (0,4) and (2, 6), what would the numerator of the equation for slope be?

Answer 1

Hi! The equation for finding the slope given 2 points is
`( x_(2) - x_(1))/(y_2-y_1)` . With the points given, we can plug those into the equation, giving
`(6-4)/(2-0)`, which is the same as 2/2, or 1/1. So the numerator, or the top number would just be 1.

Answer 2

6-4
