Answer:

Sure, I'd be happy to help! The slope of the line that contains the points (-1, 2) and (3, 3) is:

BOLD

$$\text{slope} = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{3 - 2}{3 - (-1)} = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5$$

Here, "rise" is the change in y-coordinates (from -1 to 3) and "run" is the change in x-coordinates (from -1 to 3).
