Answer:


-(4)/(3)

Explanation:

To find the slope of a straight line only two known points on the straight line are sufficient.

If we take the first two points i.e. (-1,3) and (2,-1), then slope of the straight line will be
(3-(-1))/(-1-2) = -(4)/(3) (Answer)

Note: Since we know that if a straight line passes through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), then the slope of the straight line is given by
m = (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
