Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephanie,  so many people ask questions about this type of problem,  I think the teachers don't know how to explain these at all.  Ask your teacher if I can have some of their salary :)  I have to explain this to that many people..  :0

given"

point P1 (-4,-2)  in the form (x1,y1)

point P2(3,1)  in the form (x2,y2)

slope = m

formula for slope is:

m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

m = (1-(-2) ) / (3 - (-4))

m = (1+2) / (3+4)

m = 3 /7

That's your slope,  ask if you need more explanation,  I'm really curious about why this type of problem causes so many questions  :/
