Question

What equation in slope intercept form represents the line that passes through the points (4,6) and (8,0)

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope formed using points (4,6) and (8,0) is $\dfrac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The points are (4,6) and (8,0)

($x_1$ , $y_1$) = (4,6)

($x_2$ , $y_2$) = (8,0)

Let The slope that formed = m

So,

slope = m = $\dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

m =  $\dfrac{0 - 6}{8 - 4}$

Or, m =  $\dfrac{6}{4}$

∴ m = $\dfrac{3}{2}$

So, The slope formed using points = m =  $\dfrac{3}{2}$

Hence , The slope formed using points (4,6) and (8,0) is $\dfrac{3}{2}$ Answer
