Answer:

Slope = (3/5)

Explanation:

Point 1: (5, 3); Point 2: (10, 6)

(x₁, y₁) (x₂, y₂)

y₂ - y₁ 6 - 3 3

m = ----------- = ----------- = ---------

x₂ - x₁ 10 - 5 5

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 3 = (3/5)(x - 5)

y - 3 = (3/5)x - 3

+3 +3

-----------------------------

y = (3/5)x

I hope this helps!
