Answer:
The slope of the line that contains the points (-2, 2) and (3, 4) is 2/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is denoted by m and is calculated using the formula:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Here
[tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] are the coordinates of the first point on line and
[tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] are the coordinates of the second point on line
Given two points are:
(x1,y1) = (-2, 2)
(x2,y2) =(3, 4)
Putting the values in the formula
[tex]m = \frac{4-2}{3-(-2)}\\m = \frac{2}{3+2}\\m=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Hence,
The slope of the line that contains the points (-2, 2) and (3, 4) is 2/5.
