A line passes through the points in this table.
x | y
1 | 8
2 | 15
3 | 22
4 | 29
What is the slope of the line?
Write your answer as an integer or simplified fraction.

Answer

To find the slope of the line, use the formula:

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Using the points (1, 8) and (2, 15):

  1. y2 = 15, y1 = 8, x2 = 2, x1 = 1
  2. Slope = (15 - 8) / (2 - 1) = 7 / 1 = 7

The slope of the line is 7.
