Answer 1

`\boxed{\bf Slope(m)=2.5}`

Explanation:

We can use the slope formula to find the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points on the line:- (3,64) and (9,79).

The coordinates of the first point represent x_1 and y_1. The coordinates of the second points are x_2, y_2.

`\boxed{\bf \mathrm{Slope}=\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}`

`\sf \left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(3,\:64\right)`

`\sf \:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(9,\:79\right)`

`\sf m=\cfrac{79-64}{9-3}`

`\sf m=\cfrac{5}{2}`

`\sf m=2.5`

Therefore, the slope of (3,64) and (9,79) is D) 2.5!!

Answer 2

• m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
• m = 15/6
• m = 2.5

Explanation:

Formula we use,

→ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then the required slope is,

→ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

→ m = (79 - 64)/(9 - 3)

→ m = 15/6

→ [ m = 2.5 ]

Hence, the slope is 2.5.
