A line contains the points (1, 4) and (5,12) .

Using the slope formula, what is the slope of the line?

Respuesta :

The slope of the line is 2
or
m=2

The formula for slope is: (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

So,
(12-4) / (5-1)
8 / 4

Which reduces down to 2
anchitthawi
[tex]slope = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]
(x1,y1) = (1,4)
(x2,y2) = (5,12)

so
[tex]slope \: = \frac{12-4}{5-1} [/tex]
slope = 8/4 = 2
