Question 167965
I'm assuming that you're looking for the slope (and just the slope) right?


Since we're dealing with the points (1620,3) and (4860,9), this means that {{{x[1]=1620}}}, {{{y[1]=3}}}, {{{x[2]=4860}}}, and {{{y[2]=9}}}



{{{m=(y[2]-y[1])/(x[2]-x[1])}}} Start with the slope formula.



{{{m=(9-3)/(4860-1620)}}} Plug in {{{y[2]=9}}}, {{{y[1]=3}}}, {{{x[2]=4860}}}, and {{{x[1]=1620}}}



{{{m=(6)/(4860-1620)}}} Subtract {{{3}}} from {{{9}}} to get {{{6}}}



{{{m=(6)/(3240)}}} Subtract {{{1620}}} from {{{4860}}} to get {{{3240}}}



{{{m=1/540}}} Reduce



So the slope of the line that goes through the points *[Tex \LARGE \left(1620,3\right)] and *[Tex \LARGE \left(4860,9\right)] is {{{m=1/540}}}
