Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3,-1) and (2,-5)

-5/4

-4/5

5/4

4/5

Answer 1

4

but I think you wrote the question down wrong so its likely

4/5

Explanation:

(3,-1) and (2,-5)

slope is:

change in y

----------------

Change in x

look at the y's -1 and -5. The change or distance between them is -4

look at the x's 3 and 2. the change or distance between them is -1

so the slope is -4/-1 or 4

Since that not one of the answer I suspect you wrote it down incorrectly

because

if the it was (3,-1) and (-2,-5) it would be -4/-5 or 4/5

Answer 2

The slope m is 4. See picture.
