Answer 1

4/3

=========

Use the slope formula:

• slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

Using the points (-2, -3) and (1, 1), we can calculate the difference in y-coordinates and the difference in x-coordinates:

• change in y = 1 - (-3) = 4
• change in x = 1 - (-2) = 3

Then, we can substitute these values into the slope formula:

• slope = 4/3

Therefore, the slope of the line is 4/3.
