Step-by-step explanation:
slope = y2 – y1
x2 – x1
=4 – 2
4 – -3
= 2

y – 4 = 2
x – 4 7
7(y – 4) = 2(x – 4)
7y – 28 = 2x – 8
7y = 2x – 8 + 28
7y = 2x + 20

Answer:
slope =
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 4)
m =
=
=
