Equation of a line is given by y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is any point on the line.
y - (-2) = 4(x - 3)
y + 2 = 4x - 12
y = 4x - 12 - 2
y = 4x - 14
First, you would multiply: -13 = 70m - 2m. Then, you subtract the like terms, which would be 70m - 2m: -13 = 68m. You are looking for what m is, so you would divide 68 on both sides: m = - 13 / 68. In math, people would usually like fractions more than decimals, but if you are looking for the decimal number, it would be m ≈ - 0.19.
