Answer:

slope:
(1)/(2)

Explanation:

If we were to plot the first pair on a graph it would be (-2,3) and the next pair of points plotted would be (0,4). The intercepts are
x^(1),x^(2) and
y^(1), y^(2). To find the slope of a line using pairs of plotted points, you need to use the slope formula
(rise)/(run) to solve this.

- write your formula


(rise)/(run) : m=(y^(2)-y^(1) )/(x^(2)-x^(1) )

- plug in your numbers


m=(4-3)/(0-(-2))

- solve


m=(1)/(2)

I hope this helps!
