the slope in intercept form : y=3x+-1

Remember: y=mx+b

Start with the formula to calculate slope

Slope (m)= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Substitute point values in the equation

m= (14 - 5)/(5 - 2)

Simplify each side of the equation

m= (14 - 5)/(5 - 2) = 9/3

Solve for slope (m)

9/3 = 3

just the slope: m=3
