What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-3, 5) and (1, 7)?

A.1/2
B.1
C.2

A. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to do the slope formula which is ..

Once you input the coordinates into the formula, it should look like this..

You solve that and you'll get which can be simplified to

b

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
