Answer:

The slope of the line = m = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The point (2, 2)
  • The point (5, 6)

To determine:

Find the slope of the line that passes through (2, 2) and (5, 6).

Finding the slope between (2, 2) and (5, 6)

  • (x₁, y₁) = (2, 2)
  • (x₂, y₂) = (5, 6)

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

               =  [6 - 2] / [5 - 2]

               = 4 / 3  

Thus, the slope of the line = m = 4/3
