Question

How do you find the slope of the line passing through (2,4) and (5,10)?

Answer 1

`"slope "=2`

Explanation:

`"calculate slope m using the "color(blue)"gradient formula"`

`•color(white)(x)m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

`"let "(x_1,y_1)=(2,4)" and "(x_2,y_2)=(5,10)`

`rArrm=(10-4)/(5-2)=6/3=2`
