Question

What is the slope of a line that passes throw
(6, 24) and the origin?

Answer 1

Answer:4

Step-by-step explanation:
Slope=change in y/change in x
Slope=24-0/6-0
Slope=24/6
Slope=4

Answer 2

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line passes through the origin, we can divide the y over x values like this

slope = y/x = 24/6 = 4

If the line didn't pass through the origin, then you would need to use the slope formula which is

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

You could use the slope formula on (0,0) and (6,24) and you should get m = 4.
