Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1,1) and (9,7)?

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = $\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 7)

m = $\frac{7-1}{9-1}$ = $\frac{6}{8}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$

Answer 2

It's 3/4, simple enough just do delta y over delta x
