To find the slope of the line that contains the points (1,5) and (3,2), we can use the formula:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
Given that the coordinates of the first point are (1,5) and the coordinates of the second point are (3,2), we can calculate the changes in x and y:
change in y = 2 - 5 = -3
change in x = 3 - 1 = 2
Substituting these values into the slope formula:
slope = (-3)/(2)
Therefore, the slope of the line that contains the points (1,5) and (3,2) is -3/2.
