Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

We have two points, we can use the slope formula

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

m = (6-3)/(8-2)

= 3/6

= 1/2

\huge\textsf{Hey there!}


\mathsf{Formula:m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}


\bullet\textsf{ Whereas, }\mathsf{y_2}\textsf{ is equal to 6 \& }\mathsf{ y_1}\textsf{ is equal to 3. As well as, }\mathsf{x_2}\textsf{ is equal to 8 \& }\mathsf{x_1}\textsf{ is equal }\\\textsf{to 2}


\mathsf{Equation: (6-3)/(8-2)}\\\\\\\mathsf{6-3=\boxed{\large\textsf{\bf 3}}}\\\mathsf{8-2=\boxed{\large\textsf{\bf 6}}}\\\\\\\mathsf{= (3)/(6)}\\\\\\\mathsf{(3/3)/(6/3)=\boxed{\mathsf{\bf (1)/(2)}}}\\\\\\\\\\\mathsf{m = \boxed{\mathsf{\bf (1)/(2)}}}\large\checkmark


\boxed{\boxed{\large\textsf{Answer: }\mathsf{\bf (1)/(2)}}}\huge\checkmark


\large\textsf{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
