Answer:
Find the Slope = y2 – y1 / x2 – x1
= 6 – 2 / 12 – -4
= 4/16
= 1/4 This is the slope, m.
2) Now, plug m and one point into: y – y1 = m (x – x1)
y – 6 = 1/4 (x – 12) Distribute the 1/4
y – 6 = 1/4 * x – 3 Solve for y
y = 1/4*x – 3 + 6
y = 1/4*x + 3

FORMULA:
ANSWER:
We will use the slope formula, and plug the respective value as slope of points are given.
1/12 = 11 – m/12 + 24
1/12 = 11 – m/36
1 = 11 – m/3
11 – m = 3
m = 11 + 3
m = 14.
Hence, the value of m for given slope is 14.
