Slope Practice

100

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (1, 2) and (4, 8)?

The slope of the line is 2

.

200

The slope formula is m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Substituting the points, we get m = (9 - 3) / (5 - 2)

300

: Using the slope formula, m = (5 - 1) / (2 - 4)

Problem 5: Find the slope of the line given by the equation 2x + 5y = 10. 

 Therefore, the slope is -2/5.
