Given the two points:

$\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1)=(3,2) \\ \text{and} \\ (x_2,y_2)=(6,11) \end{gathered}$

The slope (m) is found by using the formula shown below:

To find the slope, we substitute the given points:

$\begin{gathered} m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ m=(11-2)/(6-3) \\ m=(9)/(3) \\ m=3 \end{gathered}$

The slope is 3.
