Expert Solution
Step 1

NOTE: Refresh your page if you can't see any equations.

.

find the slope of a line joining the points (13, 1) and (−3, −3).

two points are

(x_1,y_1)=(13,1)

(x_2,y_2)=(-3,-3)

the slope of the line is given by

m_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m_1=\frac{-3-1}{-3-13}

{\color{Red} m_1=\frac{1}{4}}
