Question

Line n goes through points A and B. What is the slope of line n?
Point A;(4,7)
Point B:(18,17)

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is 5/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a slope formula.

Slope:

$\sf{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} }$

y₂ = (17)

y₁ = (7)

x₂ = (18)

x₁ = (4)

Rewrite the problem down.

$\sf{\dfrac{17-7}{18-4}=\dfrac{10}{14}={\dfrac{10\div2}{14\div2}=\boxed{\sf{\dfrac{5}{7}}}$

Therefore, the slope is 5/7.

I hope this helps! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

Answer 2

Answer:

5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(17-7)/(18-4)

m=10/14

simplify

m=5/7
