प्रश्न

Find the slope of a line passing through the following point:

 (−3, 2) and (1, 4)

थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर

(−3, 2) and (1, 4)

Let m be the slope of the given line.

\[\therefore m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]

\[ \Rightarrow m = \frac{4 - 2}{1 + 3} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}\]

Hence, the slope of the line passing through the points (−3, 2) and (1, 4) is \[\frac{1}{2}\].
