Answer:

The slope is


- (5)/(2)

Explanation:

Remember:


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

Let's plug in!


m = ( - 12 - 3)/(4 - ( - 2)) = ( - 15)/( \: \: \: 6) = - (5)/(2)

Answer: c) -5/2

hi! i'm the same person who answered your other question so i used a slope calculator again :)

but the equation is y2-y1 divided by x2-x1

so it's just from the coordinates (-2,3) and (4,-12) and the expression is

-12-3 divided by 4-(-2)

which is just -15 divided by 6 which you can divide by 3 for both parts of the fraction which is:

-5 divided by 2

i hope this helps :)
