Answer 2

Slope formula is\[\frac{ y _{2} -y _{1}}{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]Those x1 and x2 and y1 and y2 come from the points you provided us.

Answer 3

You can use the slope formula.

\(m = \dfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\)

To find the slope between two points.

Our points are:

y2: -3
y1: 1

x2: 0
x1: -2

Answer 4

is the 2 and 1 the exponents?

Answer 5

No, there aren't any exponents, I gave you the numbers, just put them in. No exponents, just regular numbers.

Answer 6
