Question

The slope of the line containing the points (-2, 3) and (-3, 1) is

Answer 1

You would do y2-y1 (3-1) divide x2-x1 (-2-(-3) so you would get 2/1 thus the slope is 2

Answer 2

2.

Explanation:

The formula to find the slope of a line with two points is

`m=(y_1-y_2)/(x_1-x_2)`

where
`(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)` are two points in the line. Then, the slope of the line containing the points
`(x_1,y_1)=(-2,3)` and
`(x_2,y_2)=(-3,1)` is

`m=(3-1)/(-2-(-3))=(2)/(-2+3)=(2)/(1)=2.`

Then, the slope of the line containing the points (-2, 3) and (-3, 1) is 2.
