Question

Find the slope given: (1,5) & (3,12)
m =

Answer 1

`(7)/(2)`

Explanation:

Slope, or the Rise/run formula is typically used on the coordinate plane to figure the equation of a line. Although we are not given the direct image, we can still determine the slope by using the following formula:

`slope=(rise)/(run) =(y_(2) -y_(1) )/(x_(2) -x_(1) ) \\=(12-5)/(3-1) \\=(7)/(2) \\slope=(7)/(2)`

I would be ahppy to help you again in the future, and hope that this answer gives you some clarification :D

Answer 2

Rise (y) over Run (x)

12-5

------

3-1

7/2=m
