Answer: -3

Explanation:

To find the slope, you can use the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given

x1=-2

y1=-19

x2=-12

y2=11

Substitute values into the formula

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=[(11)-(-19)]/[(-12)-(-2)]

=(11+19)/(-12+2)

=30/-10

=-3

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions
