Since f(2)=-3, this means that we have the ordered pair (2,-3). This also means that if , then


Also, since f(-2)=5 this means that we have the ordered pair (-2,5). This also means that if , then


So this makes the first point and the second point .


Start with the slope formula.


Plug in , , , and


Subtract from to get


Subtract from to get


Reduce


So the slope of the line that goes through the points and is
