Line Segment (Points) - Find Slope (Formula)

Level 1

This topic focuses on finding the slope of a line segment given two points. Students are required to apply the slope formula \( \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \) to compute the slope between pairs of coordinates. Each question provides two points, A and B, with their respective coordinates, and students must select the correct calculation among two options to determine the slope. This exercise is part of a broader unit on line equations and graphing, helping students understand and apply foundational concepts in coordinate geometry.
