Answer:

m =
-(11)/(10)

Explanation:

We know that the slope intercept equation is written in the form of
y = mx + b, where m stands for slope and b for the y intercept. Start out by finding the slope, shown below.

Our 2 points: (-6,5) and (4,-6)

Slope formula:
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Plug in values:
(5-(-6))/(-6-4) =
-(11)/(10)

The slope is
-(11)/(10).
