Question

calculate the slope between the two points given (4,2) (9,8)

Answer 1

We have to use the slope formula

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Let's replace the points (4,2) and (9,8), where

$\begin{gathered} x_1=4 \\ x_2=9_{} \\ y_1=2 \\ y_2=8 \end{gathered}$$m=\frac{8-2}{9-4}=\frac{6}{5}$

Hence, the slope is 6/5.
