Question

find the slope between these two points: (3,1) (5,4)
(leave the answer as a fraction)

Answer 1

\[slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)\]

Answer 2

subtract the points and stack y/x and reduce

Answer 3

(5,4)
-(3,1)
------
(2,3) ; slope = y/x = 3/2

Answer 4

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



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



m=(3)/(5-3)



m=3/2

Answer 5

i subtract vertically so that I can keep track of it all :)

Answer 6

dunno, i never go in there much

Answer 7

do u always subtract?

Answer 8

yes, you subtract the corresponding coordinates

Answer 9

thanks
