Question

Find the slope that passes through 3,4 and 1,1

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{m=(3)/(2)=1.5}`

Explanation:

The formula of a slope:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

We have two points:

`(3,\ 4)\to x_1=3;\ y_1=4\\(1,\ 1)\to x_2=1;\ y_2=1`

Substitute:

`m=(1-4)/(1-3)=(-3)/(-2)=(3)/(2)=1.5`

Answer 2

3/2

Explanation:

To find the slope between two points

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

= (1-4)/(1-3)

= -3/-2

= 3/2
