Slope of the line through the points (-4, 1) and (2, 2)



m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29


m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+%28x%5B1%5D%29%29


m+=+%282+-+1%29%2F%282+-+%28-4%29%29


m+=+%282+-+1%29%2F%282+%2B+4%29


m+=+%281%29%2F%286%29


Answer: Slope is m+=+1%2F6
