Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ \frac{1}{5} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the points be A and B
A ( 7 , 5 ) ⇒( x₁ , y₁ )
B ( 2 , 4 )⇒( x₂ , y₂ )
Now, let's find the slope of the line which contains these points:
Slope = [tex] \mathsf{\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} }[/tex]
plug the values
⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{4 - 5}{2 - 7} }[/tex]
Calculate
⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{ - 1}{ - 5} }[/tex]
Reduce the fraction with -1
⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{1}{5} }[/tex]
Hope I helped!
Best regards!
