Answer:

-1/2

Explanation:

Formula to find slope is y2-y1/x2-x1

Chose one ordered pair to be the 2 and the other one to be the 1

I chose the 2nd one to be 2.

Plug in the y-value from the 2nd ordered pair to y2 because its the 2.

Plug in the x-value from the 2nd ordered pair to x2 because its the 2.

Now you have 0-y1/5-x1

Do the same thing but for the 1.

Plug in the y-value from the 1st ordered pair to y1 because its the 1.

Plug in the x-value from the 1st ordered pair to x1 because its the 1.

Now you have 0-5/5--5

In this situation, you have 2 minus signs.

2 minus = 1 positive.

Now you have 0-5/5+5

Simplify.

Now you have -5/10.

Simplify.

-1/2.

Hope this helps!
