Explanation:

In order to find the slope, we must know the formula needed.


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

Using 2 given points, we can subtract both and receive our final answer.

Points that are provided:

  • (4, 3)
  • (1, -1)

Substitute the given points into the formula format.

Then, solve.


(3)/(4) -(-1)/(1) =(4)/(3)

m = 4/3

The slope is positive. Meaning that the slope is increasing for the value of y.
