The slope: $= 3$ $= 3$

$(3, 0) = x_{1}, y_{1}$ $(3,0) = color(blue)(x_1, y_1$
$(6, 9) = x_{2}, y_{2}$ $(6,9) = color(blue)(x_2, y_2$

The slope is calculated using formula:

Slope $= \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$ $= color(blue)((y_2- y_1) / (x_2 - x_1)$

$= \frac{9 - 0}{6 - 3}$ $= (9 - 0) / (6 - 3)$

$= \frac{9}{3}$ $= (9 ) / (3)$

$= 3$ $= 3$

What is the slope of the line passing through (3,0); (6,9) (3,0);(6,9) (3,0); (6,9) ?
