Answer:
Your slope would be 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know 2 points we'd use the formula
[tex]M=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]
[tex]X_{1} = 2[/tex]
[tex]X_{2}=1[/tex]
[tex]y_{1}=8[/tex]
[tex]Y_{2}=3[/tex]
So your equation would be
[tex]M=\frac{3-8}{1-2}[/tex]
Than you would subtract each of them leaving you with this:
[tex]M=\frac{-5}{-1}[/tex]
When you divide the two negative numbers that would leave you with your slope, which is 5.
-5 ÷ -1 = 5
I hope this help.
