2

-2

-1

Answer 1

The slope of the line through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by :
\(\huge m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}\)
now,just put the values and find m.

Answer 2

Thanks that helps!

Answer 3

welcome ^_^

Answer 4

what slope did you get?? just to verify...

Answer 5

umm i dont think i did it right...i got -0.5

Answer 6
