Question

The slope of the line that passes through the point (2,4)and (3,8) is

Answer 1

Equation of the line:

y = 4x – 4

Slope: 4

Answer 2

Answer:

+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is Rise over Run or the difference in the y values over the difference in the x values.

Rise = difference between 4 and 8 = 4

Run = difference between 2 and 3  = 1

So your slope is 4 and since the line slants upward from left to right, the slope is positive.
