Question

Use the slope formula to calcuate the slope (129,110) (300,245) to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

Given:

The points are (129,110) (300,245).

The slope is calculated as,

`\begin{gathered} \text{slope}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ (x_1,y_1)=(129,110)_{} \\ (x_2,y_2)=(300,245) \\ \text{Slope}=(245-110)/(300-129) \\ \text{Slope}=(135)/(117) \\ \text{Slope}=(15)/(19) \end{gathered}`

Answer: slope=15/19
