The slope of the line passing through the points (2, -5) and (4, 1) would be option B.) “3.”

To find slope, we abide by the formula of rise/run. In this case, slope can be found using y-y/x-x.

1 - (-5) = 6

4 - 2 = 2

Therefore, our slope is 6/2. This can be reduced, so we are not finished. 6 / 2 = 3, so our slope is 3.

Option B is the slope of this line.
