Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the function.

it is usually expressed by the y/x ratio showing how many units y changes when x changes a certain number.

in our case here, x changes by 6100 meters, and y changes by 1830 meters.

so, we have 1830/6100 = 183/610.

these numbers cannot be further simplified.
