• Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (-3, -2)

Point (2, 3)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [SF]:                    $\displaystyle m=\frac{3+2}{2+3}$
2. [Fraction] Add:                                    $\displaystyle m=\frac{5}{5}$
3. [Fraction] Divide:                                $\displaystyle m=1$
