PLEASE HELP 50 POINTS

Find the slope of the line through the points (2, -3) and (5, 4).
7/3 3/7 -3/7 -7/3

Answer 1

`m=`
`(7)/(3)`

Explanation:

First, Let's use the given formula to find the slope of the line.

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

`x_(1)=2\\x_(2)=5 \\y_(1) =-3\\y_(2)= 4\\\\`

Step 1: Plug the variables into the given formula:

`m=(4-(-3))/(5-2)`

Step 2: Solve!

`m=(4+3)/(3)`

`m=(7)/(3)`

The slope of the line is 7/3.
