To find the slope passing through the two points (5, 2) and (6, 10), we can use the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Where:
x1 = 5
y1 = 2
x2 = 6
y2 = 10
Substitute the values into the formula:
slope = (10 - 2) / (6 - 5)
slope = 8 / 1
slope = 8
Therefore, the slope passing through the points (5, 2) and (6, 10) is 8.
Find the slope that passes through points (5, 2) and (6, 10). Show your work.
