What is the slope of the line that passes

Question

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?

Answer 1

The definition of slope (shown as m) is (change in y)/(change in x). This is shown as m = Δy/Δx

 

In this problem, the difference in the y coordinates is 6 and the difference in the x coordinates is 3

 

So

m = Δy/Δx

m = 6/3
