Explanation:

1. To find the slope between the two points (3,4) and (-1,2), we can use the slope-intercept form of a line, y = mx + b. The slope (m) is equal to the rise (change in y) over the run (change in x), or (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). In this case, the rise is (2-4) = -2 and the run is (-1-3) = -4, so the slope is (-2)/(-4) = 1/2.

2. To find the slope between the two points (-2,0) and (5,-3), we can use the same formula, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). The rise is (-3-0) = -3 and the run is (5-(-2)) = 7, so the slope is (-3)/7 = -3/7

3. To find the slope between the two points (4,-5) and (4,2), we can use the same formula, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). The rise is (2- (-5)) = 7 and the run is (4-4) = 0, so the slope is 7/0 which is undefined.

4. To find the slope between the two points (-1,3) and (5,3), we can use the same formula, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). The rise is (3-3) = 0 and the run is (5-(-1)) = 6, so the slope is 0/6 = 0.
