The difference in the x-coordinates of two points is 3, and the difference in the y-coordinates of the two points is 6. What is the slope of the line that passes through the points?
2
3
6
9

Respuesta :

slope = difference in y / difference in x
slope = 6/3 = 2 <===

Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points is [tex]2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex](y2-y1)=6[/tex]

[tex](x2-x1)=3[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]m=\frac{6}{3}=2[/tex]
