what is the slope of the line passing through the pairs of points?
(9,5) and (4,1)
The slope between two points, P1(x1,y2) and P2(x2,y2) is m=(y2-y2)/(x2-x1).
ok so 4/5?
To find the slope of the line passing through two points, we can use the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
In this case, the first point is (9, 5) and the second point is (4, 1).
Let's label the first point as (x1, y1) and the second point as (x2, y2).
x1 = 9
y1 = 5
x2 = 4
y2 = 1
Now, we can substitute these values into the formula to find the slope:
slope = (1 - 5) / (4 - 9)
= (-4) / (-5)
= 4/5
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (9, 5) and (4, 1) is 4/5.
