Explanation:
To calculate the slope use the
#color(blue)"gradient formula"#
#color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1))color(white)(2/2)|)))#
where m represents the slope and# (x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)" 2 points on the line"# The 2 points here are (-2 ,3) and (3 ,5)
let
# (x_1,y_1)=(-2,3)" and " (x_2,y_2)=(3,5)#
#rArrm=(5-3)/(3-(-2))=2/5#
