Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 7) and (7, 16)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

3

Explanation:

Lets use the slope formula, Which is given as :-

`\sf{ (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) }`

Substitute the points we have to the formula :-

`\begin{gathered}\sf \longmapsto {(16 - 7)/(7-4 )} \\ \sf{ \longmapsto {(9)/(3)} \\ \sf{\longmapsto 3} \end{gathered}`

Thus, The correct answer is 3!!
