The points (-11, 15) , (-7, 31) and (1, 63 lie on the same line. What is the slope of the line? (pick any two points to make your calculation)​

The slope of the line can be calculated by using the formula:

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Using the points (-11, 15) and (-7, 31), the slope of the line is:

Slope = (31 - 15) / (-7 - (-11))

Slope = 16 / 4

Slope = 4
