Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the pair of points. ​  ​
A)m = 19 
B)m = 1 
C)m = 2 
D)m = -1 
E)none of these

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using the formula for slope: 
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Plug in the given points:
m = (7-2)/(4-9) = -5/-5 = 1
Therefore, the slope of the line is 1.
