  1. Slope Formula: [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (4, 1.2)

Point (10, 6)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

  1. Substitute [SF]:                    [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{6-1.2}{10-4}[/tex]
  2. Subtract:                              [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{4.8}{6}[/tex]
  3. Divide:                                 [tex]\displaystyle m=0.8[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]slope = \frac{4}{5} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

slope formula:

[tex] \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]

use the two coordinates given in the graph to find the values

i) (10, 6)

x1 = 10

y1 = 6

ii) (4, 1.2)

x2 = 4

y2 = 1.2

substitute the values into the formula

[tex] \frac{1.2 - 6}{4 - 10} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{ - 4.8}{ - 6} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{4}{5} [/tex]
