Slope Calculation in Coordinate Geometry

Very Easy Geometry And Measurement Coordinate Geometry

Consider the points A(2, 3) and B(5, 7) on the coordinate plane.

What is the slope of the line that passes through points A and B?

The slope of a line that passes through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ can be calculated using the formula:

$$m = \f\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$$
