Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (0,5) (2,10)

Answer 1

Answer:

m=5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

here are the points given: (0,5), (2,10)

let's label the points:

x1=0

y1=5

x2=2

y2=10

now substitute into the equation (m is the slope)

m=(10-5)/(2-0)

subtract

m=5/2

the slope is 5/2
