Question

What is the slope of the line through the points (2, 9) and (7, 4)? m = _?_

Answer 1

Subtract the y values.
Subtract the x values
Divide the first difference by the second difference.

Answer 2

Slope is "m"\[m = \frac{ y_{2} - y _{1} }{ x _{2} - x _{1} }\]where you are given the points:\[(x _{1}, y _{1})\]and\[(x _{2}, y _{2})\]
