A line passes through the points in this table.
x y
1 5
9 7
17 9
25 11
What is the slope of the line?
To find the slope of the line passing through these points, we need to calculate the change in y divided by the change in x between any two points.
Using points (1, 5) and (9, 7):
Change in y = 7 - 5 = 2
Change in x = 9 - 1 = 8
Slope = 2/8 = 1/4
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through these points is 1/4.
