Question

Given the coordinates (1, 5) and (4, 11).



The slope of the line that passes through the coordinates is

Answer 1

To find the slope of a line passing through two given points, we can use the formula:

slope = (change in y-coordinates) / (change in x-coordinates)

Let's plug in the values from the given points:

change in y-coordinates = 11 - 5 = 6
change in x-coordinates = 4 - 1 = 3

slope = 6 / 3 = 2

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the coordinates (1, 5) and (4, 11) is 2.
