Answer:

The slope is
-(2)/(11)

Explanation:

Let
(x_1,y_1)=(-22,3) and
(x_2,y_2)=(11,-3)

The slope is given by;


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

We plug in the values to get;


m=(-3-3)/(11--22)

Simplify;


m=(-6)/(33)


m=-(2)/(11)

Answer:


m=(-2)/(11) is the slope through the points.

Explanation:

We have given two points:

(-22,3) and (11,-3)

We have to find the slope through (-22,3) and (11,-3).

As we know that

slope = m =
(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

Where (x₁,y₁) = (-22,3) , (x₂,y₂) = (11,-3)

Put this values in slope equation we get,


slope = (-3-3)/(11+22) =(-6)/(33)


m=(-2)/(11)


m=(-2)/(11) is the slope through the points.
