The slope of the line is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given points are (5,-3) , (6,-1) , (7,1) , (8,3).
To find the slope of the line that contain these points is calculated by the slope formula.
Slope = [tex](y2-y1) / (x2-x1)[/tex]
Take any two points from the given set of points.
Let,
(x1,y1) = (5,-3)
(x2,y2) = (6,-1)
Slope = [tex](-1+3) / (6-5)[/tex] ⇒ 2
Therefore, the slope of the line is 2.
Similarly, the slope of the line can be known by using any two points on the line in the slope formula.
