find the slop (rate of change) of a line that passes through (-2, -3) and
(1, 1).
To find the slope of a line passing through two points, we can use the formula:
slope = (change in y-coordinates) / (change in x-coordinates)
We are given the points (-2, -3) and (1, 1), so the change in y-coordinates is: 1 - (-3) = 1 + 3 = 4
The change in x-coordinates is: 1 - (-2) = 1 + 2 = 3
Therefore, the slope (rate of change) of the line is: slope = 4/3.
