Question

a) Find the slope of the line passing through the points (2, 4) and (8, 7). 1+ line on​

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the line passing through the points  $(2, 4), (8, 7)$ is $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The points are $(2, 4), (8, 7)$

If $(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)$ are points then the slope can be written as $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The slope of the given points will be

$m=\frac{7-4}{8-2}\\\\m=\frac{3}{6} \\\\m=\frac{1}{2}$
