To find the slope of the line given by the points in the table, we can use the slope formula:

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

Let's take two points from the table. For simplicity, we can use the first two points:

- Point 1: \((1, 2)\)
- Point 2: \((3, 10)\)

Substitute the coordinates into the slope formula:

\[
\text{slope} = \frac{10 - 2}{3 - 1} = \frac{8}{2} = 4
\]

Therefore, the slope of the line is **4**.

Here are 5 related questions for further practice:
1. What is the slope if you use points \((5, 18)\) and \((7, 26)\)?
2. How do you interpret the slope in a real-world context?
3. Can the slope ever be negative? Under what conditions?
4. How would the slope change if the points represented a vertical line?
5. What is the y-intercept of the line based on the points given?

**Tip**: When finding the slope, make sure to choose any two distinct points on the line; the slope will always be the same regardless of which pair you pick.

The points in the table lie on a line. Find the slope of the line. The points are (1, 2), (3, 10), (5, 18), and (7, 26).

Learn how to find the slope of a line using the points (1, 2), (3, 10), (5, 18), and (7, 26) from a table. This example uses the slope formula to calculate the slope step by step. Suitable for students in Grades 7-9.
