Question

A line passes through the points (3, –1) and (5, 4). What is the slope of the line?

Answer 1

Answer:

D) 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(3, –1) and (5, 4)

Slope:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(4 + 1)/(5 - 3)

m= 5/2

Answer 2

Answer:

5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we can use the slope formula

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (4 - -1)/(5 - 3)

   = (4+1)/(5-3)

   = 5/2
