Question

what is the slope of the line that passes through (2, 4) and (5, 10)?

Explanation:

Identify the given coordinates

Using the Slope Formula knowledge point

$$ (x_1, y_1) = (2, 4) \quad \text{and} \quad (x_2, y_2) = (5, 10) $$

Calculate the slope

Using the Slope Formula knowledge point

$$ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{10 - 4}{5 - 2} = \frac{6}{3} = 2 $$

Answer:
