Answer:

[tex]2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the difference between the two y values. 5 − 1 = 4

  This is usually called the "rise" of the line.

2. Find the difference between the two x values. 4 − 2 = 2

   This is usually called the "run" of the line.

3.  Divide the rise buy the run: [tex]\frac{rise}{run} = slope \frac{4}{2} = 2[/tex]
