Answer:
m = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that,
( 15 , -3 ) ⇒ ( x₁ , y₁ )
( 17 , 5 ) ⇒ ( x₂ , y₂ )
You have to use y = m x + c to find the equation of the line.
Here,
m = slope
c = y - intercept
Let find the slope now.
[tex]m = \frac{y_{1}-y_{2} }{x_{1}-x_{2} }[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-3-5}{15-17}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-8}{-2}[/tex]
[tex]m=4[/tex]
Slope = 4
Hope this helps you.
