11. Choose the correct answer.
The slope of the line between the points (-1, 3) and (1, 5) is ____.
A) (5 - 1) / (3 - (-1))
B) (5 - 3) / (1 - (-1))
C) (1 - (-1)) / (5 - 3)
D) (3 - (-1)) / (5 - 1)

Answer

B) (5 - 3) / (1 - (-1))

The slope of a line between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is calculated as (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). For the points (-1, 3) and (1, 5), the slope is (5 - 3) / (1 - (-1)) = 2 / 2 = 1.
