Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (4, 4)?
Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 1

Explanation:

Formula for finding the slope:  $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Take y2 and y1 from (4,4) (1,1)

Take x2 and x1 from (4,4) (1,1)

$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ = $\frac{4-1}{4-1}$ = $\frac{3}{3}$ = 1

This is how the answer is 1
