Question

(1,2) and (5,0)
find the slope of the line that passes through each pair of points

Answer 1

m = 3 :)

The slope can be found using
m = y2 - y2
————
x2 - x1

Where m is the slope and (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the two points of the line.

Substituting the values from the points in the problem gives

m = 2 - 5 -3
——- = —— = 3
0 - 1 - 1
