Answer:

Slope = 5/2

Explanation:

The equation of the line

y = mx + c

y = intercept point y

m = slope of the line

x = intercept point x x

c = intercept

Given

Points ( 6 , 8) ( 4 , 3)

x1 = 6

y1 = 8

x2 = 4

y2 = 3

Insert the values

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

m = 3 - 8 / 4 - 6

= -5/-2

Minus cancel minus

= 5/2

The slope of the line is 5/2
