Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points

Answer 1

2 is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge \boxed{\textnormal{The slope is 2.}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

$\displaystyle M=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\displaystyle \frac{1-(-5)}{4-1}=\frac{6}{3}=2$

$\large \textnormal{Therefore, the slope is 2, and the correct answer is 2.}$
