The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be calculated using the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the given points (2, -5) and (4, 1), the slope can be calculated as:
slope = (1 - (-5)) / (4 - 2)
= (1 + 5) / 2
= 6 / 2
= 3
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (2, -5) and (4, 1) is 3.
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the given points (2, -5) and (4, 1), the slope can be calculated as:

= (1 + 5) / 2
= 6 / 2
= 3
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (2, -5) and (4, 1) is 3.
