Answer 2

The slope is 4.

Explanation:

In order to find this without graphing it you can put it in y-y/x-x form. So you subtract the y points on the top. 5-25=-20. then you subtract the x points -2-3=-5 so then you divide -20 by -5 since they are both a negative they become a positive and 20/5=4 so your slope is 4/1.
