Question

The values given in the table below are the coordinates of points on a line.

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope m use the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 8) ← ordered pairs from the table

m = $\frac{8-3}{2-1}$ = 5
