Question

1. what is the slope of the line that passes through the points m(-3,5) and n(1,8)? enter the answer in the box provided.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope formula

The slope formula between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$.

Step2: Identify the points' coordinates

Here $x_1=-3,y_1 = 5,x_2=1,y_2 = 8$.

Step3: Substitute values into formula

$m=\frac{8 - 5}{1-(-3)}=\frac{3}{1 + 3}$.

Step4: Simplify the fraction

$m=\frac{3}{4}$.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{4}$
