Answer:

m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 3 points on the line.

to find the slope, we just need 2 points, so we'll pick (1,1) and (2,4)

(refer to attached)

in our case, x₁=1     y₁=1    x₂=2   y₂=4

m = (4-1) / (2-1)

m = 3/1

m = 3

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating slope is given as :

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1}=0[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = 2[/tex]

[tex]y_{1} = -2[/tex]

[tex]y_{2} = 4[/tex]

substituting into the formula , we have :

[tex]m = \frac{4-(-2)}{2-0}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{4+2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 3[/tex]

Therefore : slope = 3
