Question

Find the slope of the line through the following pair of points and draw the line through the points.

Answer 1

Given:

Two points (1, 1) and (6, 4).

To find: The slope

Explanation:

Using the slope formula,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substituting the given points we get,

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{4-1}{6-1} \\ m=\frac{3}{5} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the slope of the line is,

$m=\frac{3}{5}$

Then, the graph is,
