Question

What is the slope of the a line with values Y1=1.Y2=10.X1=2.X2=8

Answer 1

• The slope of the line is 1.5

Explanation:

Given coordinates:

• y₁ = 1, y₂ = 10, x₁ = 2, x₂ = 8

Use the slope equation:

• 
  `m =\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}`

Substitute given coordinates and find the slope:

• 
  `m =\cfrac{10-1}{8-2}=\cfrac{9}{6}=1.5`
