What is the slope of the line passing through the points (1, -5)and (4, 1)

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope (m) can be found using the formula ...

  m = ∆y/∆x = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  = (1 -(-5))/(4 -1) = 6/3

  m = 2

The slope of the line is 2.

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.
