What is the slope of the line that passes through (-2,7) and (4,9)

A slope=-1/3
B slope=1/3
C slope=3

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = ( y₂ - y₁ ) ÷ ( x₂ - x₁ )

y₂ = 9

y₁ = 7

x₂ = 4

x₁ = -2

y₂ - y₁ = 9 - 7 = 2

x₂ - x₁ = 4 - -2 = 6

2 ÷ 6 = 1/3

Answer 2

Answer:

B slope=1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

B slope=1/3
