Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (9, 7)?    ​

Answer 1

Answer:

slope =1

Step-by-step explanation:

(1, 1)=(x1,y1)

(9, 7)=(X2, y2)

now,

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(7-1)/(9-1)

=8/8

=1

Answer 2

Hey there!

Use the slope formula:

$\bold{\displaystyle\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}$

$\bold{\displaystyle\frac{7-1}{9-1}}$

Simplify

$\bold{\displaystyle\frac{7}{8} }\hookleftarrow\text{Slope of the line}$

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any questions!
