Question

what is the slope of a line with points B (3, 5) and C (5, 10)

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Slope of a line between two points is given by formula:

$(y2 - y1) \div (x2 - x1)$

2. Therefore, Here y2= 10 , y1= 5 , x2= 5 and

x1= 3

3. Substituting corresponding values in the above formulae, we get,

(10-5) ÷ (5-3) = 5/2 = 2.5
