Question

find the slope of the line. the slope is the change in vertical distance for a given change in horizontal distance. you can use any two points on the line to find the slope. lets look at the change in vertical and horizontal distance from (1, 11) to (2, 15). start by labeling the change in vertical distance and horizontal distance on the slope triangle below.
graph of a line with points (1,11), (2,15), and others, with y-axis labeled ne in the bowl (milliliters), y and grid lines. also shows slope formula: slope = vertical distance / horizontal distance

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points

Points are (1,11) and (2,15).

Step2: Calculate vertical change

Vertical change = 15 - 11 = 4.

Step3: Calculate horizontal change

Horizontal change = 2 - 1 = 1.

Step4: Compute slope

Slope = $\frac{vertical\ change}{horizontal\ change} = \frac{4}{1} = 4$.
