(2,3) and (5,9) You are suppose to subtract the y axis from the x axis. You´re going to do 9 - 3 which is 6. Then, you are going to do 5 - 2 which is 3. You should get 6/3. This simplifies to 2. So, you slope is going to be 2. I hope this helps!
(Hint: y is the rise and x is the run. To find slope, we need to know the change in “y” and the change in “x.” That is where the formula comes from)
2 will be x1 3 will be y1 5 will be x2 9 will be y2
You will get 3-9/2-5 Then: -6/-3 Then: 2
The slope is 2.
(Although this works with linear functions, for non-linear functions we use derivatives. I’m assuming you are using a linear function. Assuming the two points are on a linear function, the slope is 2)
