Question

How do you find the slope given (2,4)(3,8)?

Answer 1

`m=4/1`, or simply `4`.

Explanation:

To find the slope of a line with two points `(2,4)` and `(3,8)`, use the formula `m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`, where `m` is the slope, and `(x_1,y_1)` and `(x_2,y_2)` represent the two points.

Let `(2,4)` represent `(x_1,y_1)`, and `(3,8)` represent `(x_2,y_2)`.

Substitute the two points into the equation.

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(8-4)/(3-2)` `=`

`m=4/1`, or simply `4`.
