A: (1,3) (4,9)
B: (2,1.5) (30,3.5)
C: (10,35) (30,75)
a) A: 2, B: 0.1, C: 4
b) A: 2, B: 1, C: 2
c) A: 1, B: 1.5, C: 2
d) A: 4, B: 1, C: 2.5

Answer 1

To calculate the slope between two points, we use the formula m = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1). Let's calculate the slope for each set of coordinates A, B, and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope between two points, we use the formula m = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1). Let's calculate the slope for each set of coordinates:

A: (1, 3) and (4, 9): m = (9 - 3) / (4 - 1) = 6 / 3 = 2

B: (2, 1.5) and (30, 3.5): m = (3.5 - 1.5) / (30 - 2) = 2 / 28 = 0.0714 (approx. 0.1)

C: (10, 35) and (30, 75): m = (75 - 35) / (30 - 10) = 40 / 20 = 2
