Answer:

3

Explanation:

The formula for slope is
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) ), plugging in the given values, we'll have:
(14-8)/(4-2)


(14-8)/(4-2)


(6)/(2)\\\\=3

hope this helps!

Answer:

The slope is 3.

Explanation:

You have to solve this using the slope formula in order to get the right answer.


\underline{\text{SLOPE:}}


\Longrightarrow: \sf{(Y_2-Y_1)/(X_2-X_1) }

y2= 14

y1= 8

x2= 4

x1= 2

Rewrite the problem.


\sf{(14-8)/(4-2)=(6)/(2)=\boxed{\sf{3}}

  • Therefore, the slope is 3, which is the correct answer.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
