Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{4}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a slope form.

Slope:

$\sf{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{rise}{run} }$

y₂ = (17)

y₁ = (1)

x₂ = (2)

x₁ = (-2)

Then, rewrite the problem.

Solve.

$\sf{\dfrac{17-1}{2-(-2)}=\dfrac{16}{4}=\dfrac{16\div4}{4\div4}=\dfrac{4}{1}=\boxed{\sf{4} }$

Therefore, the slope is 4, which is our answer.
