Question

What is the Slope of (8,6) and (16,11)

Answer 1

5/8

Explanation:

`\textrm{Slope } = $(y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)$`

where
`(x_1, y_1) \;\; (x_2, y_2)` are two points on the graph

The given points on the graph are (8,6) and (16,11)

Difference in y values, y2 - y1 = 11 - 6 = 5

Difference in x values,: x2 - x1 = 16 - 8 = 8

Slope = 5/8
