Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
THe slope of a straight line is given by the formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Where
m is the slope
x_1 and y_1 are the first coordinate pair points [(2,3)]
x_2 and y_2 are the second coordinate pair point [(8,6)]
So, we know that:
x_1 = 2
x_2 = 8
y_1 = 3
y_2 = 6
Now we substitute and find the value of slope to be:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\m=\frac{6-3}{8-2}\\m=\frac{3}{6}\\m=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
