3/5 is your slope because the run, which is the vertical length from point a to b is 5, and your rise, which is the opposite of tun is 3 so you put your rise over your run and get your slope, this is for any straight line with no curves

Answer:

The slope is 3/5

Explanation:

Given:

(1, 2) and (6, 5)

Slope(m) Formula:

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

m = (5 - 2)/(6 - 1)

m = 3/5
