Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the given points? (6, 2) and (7, 4)
a. -2
b. 1/2
c. -1/2
d. 2

Answer 1

Slope for (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂):      (6, 2) and (7, 4)

Slope:      (y₂ -y₁) / (x₂ -x₁)

Slope:      ( 4 - 2) / (7 - 6)  =  2/1

Slope = 2/1 = 2

Option D

Answer 2

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\frac{4-2=2}{7-6=1}=\frac{2}{1}=2$

Slope is 2.

Answer 2.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
