Given:

Point 1: x1, y1 = -3, 4

Point 2: x2, y2 = 2, 6

Let's determine the slope using the following formula:


\text{ Slope (m) = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1_{}}

We get,


\text{ Slope (m) = }(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)
\text{ Slope (m) = }(6-4)/(2-(-3))
\text{ = }\frac{6\text{ - 4}}{2\text{ + 3}}
\text{Slope (m) = }(2)/(5)

The slope is 2/5.

Therefore, the answer is False
