Finding the slope using two points:

The formula for slope is

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

In this case...

$y_{2} =2\\y_{1} =1\\x_{2} =5\\x_{1} =3$

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...

$\frac{2-1}{5-3}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

^^^This is your slope

Hope this helped!

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ T(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{3})\qquad U(\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{9}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{6+6}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{9+3}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{12}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{12}{2} \right)\implies \stackrel{M}{(6,6)}$
