Question

What is the slope of the line through (4, 7) and (5, 12)?

Answer 1

Answer: Slope=5

Explanation:

To find the slope of the line with 2 given points, you use the formula
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`.

We plug our points into the formula and get:

`(12-7)/(5-4) =(5)/(1) =5`.

Our slope is 5.
