Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (7, 5).

Answer 1

2/3

Explanation:

To find the slope of a line between two points, you would use the formula

Δ
`(y)/(x)`

`(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)` is also the same thing

so,
`(5-1)/(7-1) = (4)/(6) = (2)/(3)`

Answer 2

Explanation:

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=5-1/7-1

m=4/6

m= 2/3

The slope is 2/3
