Answer:


m=-18

Explanation:

1. The line contains the points (34,12) and (32,48). Then, you need to use the slope formula, which is:


m=(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))

2. When you substitute values into the formula, you obtain:


y_(2)=48\\y_(1)=12\\x_(2)=32\\x_(1)=34


m=(48-12)/(32-34)\\m=(36)/(-2)\\m=-18
