Q. What is the slope of a line that passes through the points (1,3) and (7,5) in the xy-plane?Choose 1 answer:(A) 31(B) 2(C) 3(D) 6
Plug in points: Using the points (1,3) and (7,5), we plug them into the slope formula:Slope =(7−1)(5−3)
Simplify numerator and denominator: Now we simplify the numerator and the denominator:Slope = 62
Reduce fraction: We can reduce the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2: Slope = (22)/(26)
Final result: After simplifying, we get:Slope = 31
