Basically, they're asking you to find the slope of the given line, as well as finding how far apart each points are from one another, horizontally and vertically.
Remember, horizontal goes this way (------) and vertical goes this way (I)
(I)
(I)
a) Horizontal distance : -2
Vertical distance : 3
b) Slope :
Remember, slope is rise over run.
So, rise = vertical distance, and run = horizontal distance.
So, our slope is : -3/2
