Answer:

<h2>slope = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have

(-3;\ -8)\to x_1=-3;\ y_1=-8\\(4;\ 6)\to x_2=4;\ y_2=6

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{6-(-8)}{4-(-3)}=\dfrac{6+8}{4+3}=\dfrac{14}{7}=2

The formula for the slope m of the line that passes through two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) is the following:

m=\dfrac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}

We have points (4,6) and (-3,-8). Let's plug these values into the formula for slope:

m=\dfrac{6-(-8)}{4-(-3)}

=\dfrac{14}{7}=2

The slope of the line passing through the two points is 2. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
