Question

Determine the slope of the line.

(1,6)
(-2,1)

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:

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

Using the points (1, 6) and (-2, 1):

m = (1 - 6) / (-2 - 1)
m = (-5) / (-3)
m = 5/3

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (1, 6) and (-2, 1) is 5/3.
