Question

What is the slope of the line passing through (1, 2) and (3, 8)?

slope = 1/7
slope = 1/3
slope = 3
slope = 7

Answer 1

slope = \[\frac{ y1-y2 }{ x1-x2 }\]

Answer 2

im confused :/

Answer 3

i got -7/-1

Answer 4

i still dont get it

Answer 5

Slope = raise/run

in this case raise=6
and run= 2
For this case what does raise over run equal?

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

No? Raise=6 run=2 slope=\[\frac{ rasie }{ run }\]

Answer 8

what's the slope?

Answer 9

6?

Answer 10

The raise is 6, and the run is 2.
The slope equals the raise divided by the run.
If raise is 6, and run is 2, what is the slope?

Answer 11

3

Answer 12

Right, do you know how to get the raise and the run?

Answer 13

somewhat

Answer 14
