Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through (3, 5) and (6, 10)?

Answer 1

um 3/5?

Answer 2

Can you explain to me how to get the answer?

Answer 3

or .6?

Answer 4

6 Is not an answer choice

Answer 5

well, the slop is just the how far up and over it goes, so from point 3,5 to 6,10 it goes up three and over 5

Answer 6

But it says "What is the slope of the line that passes through"

Answer 7

Yes, so you can keep going up 3 and over 5 and the line will stay along with that slope.

Answer 8

I don' see a slope

Answer 9

@iGreen please help

Answer 10

You can find the slope with the data from the two points:
\[m=\frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }\]
use: \[p_1=(3,5)\]
\[p_2=(6,10)\]
try that!
