Question

The slope of the line that passes through (1, 3) and (3, 5)  is ______.

  1. -1
  2. -2
  3. 2
  4. 1

hintHint:

Slope of the line that passes through two given points is m = fraction numerator y 2 space minus space y 1 over denominator x 2 space minus space x 1 end fraction

The correct answer is: 1


    Given, the points are (1, 3) and (3, 5).
    We have to find the slope of the line passing through the two points.
    The slope of the line passing through the points can be found by using the formula,
    m = fraction numerator y 2 space minus space y 1 over denominator x 2 space minus space x 1 end fraction
    Here (x1.y1) = (1,3) and (x2, y2) = (3,5)
    m = fraction numerator y 2 space minus space y 1 over denominator x 2 space minus space x 1 end fractionError converting from MathML to accessible text.
    m = fraction numerator 5 minus 3 over denominator 3 minus 1 end fraction = 2 over 2 space equals space 1
    A positive slope indicates an upward slope or an increasing graph.
    Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through (1, 3) and (3, 5)  is 1.
