Question

If a line passes through (4,13) and (6,19) what is the slope? And can you please explain how you got your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for slope is either $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ or $\frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2}$. So this should be $\frac{19-13}{6-4}$, which is 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

Slope =

6

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the rise over run

Second use the format

Y2-y1

———-

X2-x1

Using the format you will get this

19-13

——

6-4

Next solve

Which then you get
