Question

What is the slope of the two given data points below?

(7, 10) (12,25)

Answer 1

`\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{3}}}}}`

Explanation:

Let the points be A and B

Let A ( 7 , 10 ) be ( x₁ , y₁ ) and B ( 12 , 25 ) be ( x₂ , y₂ )

Finding the slope

`\boxed{ \sf{slope \: = \: (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) }}`

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{slope = (25 - 10)/(12 - 7) }}`

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{slope = (15)/(5) \: }}`

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{slope = 3}}`

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
