Question

Find the gradient of the line passing through (6,8) and (4,10)

Answer 1

Question:

Find the gradient of the line passing through (6,8) and (4,10).

Answer:

-1 is the right answer.

Explanation:

Slope of the line = The gradient of the line

Gradient of the line is known as change in the value of y-axis by change in the value of x-axis

Gradient = ∆y\∆x

`Gradient = (y_ 2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = ((10 - 8))/((4 - 6)) = ((2))/((- 2)) =\boxed{- 1}\\`
