The slope can be calculated as the quotient between the difference in the y-coordinates of two points, and the difference in the x-coordinates of the same two points.
We pick any 2 known points, like (0,2) and (5,4).
We calculate the slope as:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{4-2}{5-0}=\frac{2}{5}=0.4[/tex]
Answer:
The slope is m=2/5=0.4
