What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (0,2) and (2,6)?

2

To find the slope of the line that passes through two points, you can use the formula for slope, which is given by:

\[

\text{slope} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

\]

In this case, the two points are (0, 2) and (2, 6). Here, we can identify \( (x_1, y_1) = (0, 2) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) = (2, 6) \).

Substituting these values into the slope formula:

\[

\text{slope} = \frac{6 - 2}{2 - 0} = \frac{4}{2} = 2

\]

Thus, the slope of the line that passes through these two points is 2. This indicates that for every unit increase in \( x \), the value of \( y \) increases by 2 units, reflecting a steep upward trend in the line's graph.

The other choices represent incorrect calculations or interpretations of the slope based on either a miscalculation of the changes in the y-values and x-values or a misunderstanding of
