find the slope, if possible ,of the line passing through each pair of points. (2, -1) and (6, 3)
------------------
slope = (3--1)/(6-2) = 4/4 = 1
------
Form: y = mx + b
Solve for "b":
3 = 1*6 + b
b = -3
----
Equation:
y = x - 3

The two 
-coordinates are not equal, hence it is possible to calculate the slope. Use the slope formula:
where )
and )
are the coordinates of the given points.
