Question

What is the slope of the line MN if M(6,-2) and N(8,4)

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = M(6, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = N(8, 4)

m = $\frac{4-(-2)}{8-6}$ = $\frac{4+2}{2}$ = $\frac{6}{2}$ = 3
