To find the slope for a line that connects the given points, use the following formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the given points.
Use:
(x1,y1) = (-1,1)
(x2,y2) = (3,3)
replace the values of the previous parameters in the formula for m:
[tex]m\text{ = }\frac{3-1}{3-(-1)}=\frac{2}{3+1}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]Hence, the slope is 1/2
