Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of UV = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

• U(3, 1)

• V(-1, 2)

Finding the slope of UV

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-2,\:-3\right)$

$m=\frac{-3-1}{-2-\left(-1\right)}$

$m=4$

Thus, the slope of UV = 4
