Question

Which is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4,2) ( 4 , 2 ) and (6,7) ( 6 , 7 ) ?

Answer 1

`m=(5)/(2)`

Explanation:

`\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

`\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(4,\:2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(6,\:7\right)`

`m=(7-2)/(6-4)`

`\mathrm{Refine}`

`m=(5)/(2)`
