Find the slope of a line passing through the following point:`\ (-3,2)a n d\ (1,4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`(-3,2) and (1,4)`
Let `m` be the slope of the given line.
Therefore,
` m=frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} `
`Rightarrow m=frac{4-2}{1+3}=frac{2}{4}=frac{1}{2}`
Hence, the slope of the line passing through the points `(-3,2) and (1, ...
