Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (1, -5) and (4, 1).

Answer 1

The slope of line passing through the points (1, -5) and (4, 1) is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the steepness of a line passing through given points

Given points are:

(x1,y1) = (1, -5)

(x2,y2) = (4,1)

The slope is denoted by m. The formula for slope is:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\=\frac{1-(-5)}{4-1}\\=\frac{6}{3}\\=2$

The slope of line passing through the points (1, -5) and (4, 1) is 2
