Answer:

The answer is "
\bold{(11)/(3)}\\\\".

Explanation:

Given value:

i) (2010,48) and (2013,59)

ii) (0,48) and (3,59)

Slope for the given point:

Formula:


\bold{M= (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}

In point (i):


\to M= (59-48)/(2013-2010)\\\\


= (11)/(3)\\\\

In point (ii):


\to M= (59-48)/(3-0)\\\\


= (11)/(3)\\\\
