b=

Answer 1

`(\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{0}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{3}}} \implies \cfrac{ -5 }{ -1 } \implies \text{\LARGE 5}`
