Hello!


\large\boxed{m = (3)/(2)}


\large\boxed{\text{Slope = (3)/(2)}}

Use given points and plug them into the slope formula to find the slope of the line:


\text{Slope } = \frac{ y_2 - y_1 } { x_2 - x_1 }

We can use the points (2, -1) and (0, -4) to solve:


\text{Slope } = \frac{ -1 - (-4) } { 2 - 0 }\\\\= (3)/(2)

Therefore, the slope, or "m" value of the line is 3 / 2.
