Question

What is the gradient of the line that goes through coordinates (2,3) and (4,9)



3

2/6

1/3

Answer 1

Answer:

gradient = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the gradient ( slope) using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 9)

m = $\frac{9-3}{4-2}$ = $\frac{6}{2}$ = 3
