Answer: 1/4

Explanation:

The slope of the line that passes through the points (3, 2) and (19, 6) can be found using the formula for slope, which is:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points. Plugging in the values from the points given, we get:

m = (6 - 2) / (19 - 3)

m = 4 / 16

m = 1/4

So the slope of the line is 1/4, written in simplest form.
