A) The slope is 6/3 = 2.
B) The slope is 2/3.
C) The slope is -6/3 = -2.
D) None of the above

Answer 1

The slope of the line passing through the points (1, 0.1) and (7, 26.8) is 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through two points can be found using the formula:

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

For the given points (1, 0.1) and (7, 26.8), the slope is calculated as follows:

slope = (26.8 - 0.1) / (7 - 1) = 4.5

Therefore, the slope is 4.5.
