Given the coordinates (1, 5) and (4, 11).
The slope of the line that passes through the coordinates is

To find the slope of the line that passes through the coordinates (1,5) and (4,11), we can use the formula for slope:
slope = (change in y-coordinates)/(change in x-coordinates)
Therefore, the slope is:
slope = (11-5)/(4-1) = 6/3 = 2
So, the slope of the line is 2.
To write the equation of the line in point-slope form, we need to choose one of the given points and use the slope to fill in the blanks.
Let's use the point (1,5):
y - 5 = 2(x - 1)
