$m = \frac{2}{5}$ $m=2/5$

Explanation:

$m = \frac{y_{1} - y_{2}}{x_{1} - x_{2}}$ $m=(y_1-y_2)/(x_1-x_2)$
$m = \frac{3 - 1}{8 - 3}$ $m=(3-1)/(8-3)$
$m = \frac{2}{5}$ $m=2/5$

The slope of the line that passes through the points $(3, 1)$ $(3, 1)$ and $(8, 3)$ $(8, 3)$ is $\frac{2}{5}$ $2/5$ .

Explanation:

The formula for the slope of a line when two points $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ $(x_2, y_2)$ are given is $m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$ $m = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$ where $m$ $m$ is the slope.

$m = \frac{3 - 1}{8 - 3}$ $m = (3-1)/(8-3)$
$m = \frac{2}{5}$ $m = 2/5$
