Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4,5) and (12,7)?

Answer 1

(2,8)

Explanation:

If we plot both points on the graph and start at (4,5) we count up (rise) 2 and to the right (run) 8. This means they are both positive numbers as it goes up and to the right.

*Down or to the left would be negative.
