The correct formula to find the slope \( m \) of a line from two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) is:
\[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \]
So, the correct response is:
y2−y1/x2−x1
\( \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \)
Which formula can be used to find the slope of a line from two points (x1,y1)
and (x2,y2)
