Answer:

2.467 units

Explanation:

[tex]Slope=\frac {\triangle y}{\triangle x}[/tex]

Therefore, slope being change in vertical to change in horizontal, we need to find the change in vertical

Change in vertical, [tex]\triangle y=98.2-94.5=3.7[/tex]

[tex]\frac {1 1/2}{1}=\frac {3.7}{\triangle x}[/tex]

[tex]\triangle x=\frac {3.7\times 1}{1 1/2}\approx 2.467 units[/tex]
