M= change in y /change in x
(−10, 4), (2, −5)
M= -5-4/2-(-10)
M= -9/12
M- 3/4
Slope is - 3/4
answer: [tex]m = -\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
work:
slope formula ==> [tex]m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}[/tex]
plug the points in according to the formula
[tex]m = \frac{-5-4 }{2-(-10)}[/tex]
[tex]m = -\frac{9}{12}[/tex]
[tex]m = -\frac{3}{4}[/tex] <== simplified, and final answer :)
hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin
