Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Point (4, 1.2)
Point (10, 6)
Step 2: Find slope m
Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m
Answer:
[tex]slope = \frac{4}{5} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
slope formula:
[tex] \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]
use the two coordinates given in the graph to find the values
i) (10, 6)
x1 = 10
y1 = 6
ii) (4, 1.2)
x2 = 4
y2 = 1.2
substitute the values into the formula
[tex] \frac{1.2 - 6}{4 - 10} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{ - 4.8}{ - 6} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{4}{5} [/tex]
