Question

1. Find the slope of a line passing through points (0,0) and (4,5)

o 4/5
5/4
4/9
5/9
Option 5

Answer 1

The answer is 5/4

Explanation:

Slope of a line is given by

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

where

m is the slope and

( x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points of the line

Slope of the line between the points

(0,0) and (4,5) is

`m = (5 - 0)/(4 - 0) = (5)/(4)`

Hope this helps you

Answer 2

slope =
`(5)/(4)`

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 5)

m =
`(5-0)/(4-0)` =
`(5)/(4)`
