The slope of the line given the two ordered pairs = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordered pairs: (1, 3) and (2, 5)

m = change in y/change in x


\begin{gathered} m\text{ = slope =}(5-3)/(2-1) \\ m\text{ = }(2)/(1)\text{ = 2} \\ \text{slope = 2} \end{gathered}

The slope of the line given the two ordered pairs = 2
