Question

M = y2-yi=X2-X1Find the slope of the line that passesthrough these two points.(6,4)m = [?](2, -4)-

Answer 1

The slope between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

In this case we have the points (2,-4) and (6,4), then:

`\begin{gathered} m=(4-(-4))/(6-2) \\ m=(4+4)/(4) \\ m=(8)/(4) \\ m=2 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the slope is 2
