Question

Line AB contains points A(4, 5) and B(9, 7). What is the slope of AB?

Answer 1

The slope would be 5/2. To get from (4,5) to (9,7) you need to rise up 5 units and right by 2 units

Answer 2

Answer:

the slope is 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

because the 4 in (4,5) is the x value meaning it moves horizontally and horizontal is the run of the slope (the denominator of the slope) so you run 5 to the right making it positive and you rise 2 which is the y value so the rise over run (slope) is 2/5
