the slope of the line through (3, 4) and (0, 2).

Question

the slope of the line through (3, 4) and (0, 2).

 

Answer 1

The formula for a slope of line going through two coordinates is:  (y_{2 -} y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).

 

Label your two sets of coordinates (3, 4) as (x₁, y₁) and (0, 2) as (x₂, y₂) and plug those into the slope formula:

 

 

(2 - 4)/(0 -3)  =  -2/-3  = 2/3 final answer
