Answer:
gradient m = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
calculate the gradient m, using the gradient formula
• m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
let (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 8) ← 2 points on the line
substitute these values into the formula for m
m = [tex]\frac{8-0}{6-4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex] = 4
