Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the given pair of points. (-1, 2) and (3, 4)

Answer 1

You would need to apply this formula: \(\large m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)

Answer 2

(-1, 2) -> (x1, y1)
(3, 4) -> (x2, y2)

In case your unsure where the values @geerky42 came up with are from.

Answer 3

thanks

Answer 4

\(\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
&({\color{red}{ -1}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 2}})\quad &({\color{red}{ 3}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 4}})
\end{array}
\\\quad \\

slope = {\color{green}{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{{\color{blue}{ y_2}}-{\color{blue}{ y_1}}}{{\color{red}{ x_2}}-{\color{red}{ x_1}}}\)
