Answer 1

Slope = -1/2

Explanation:

Formula we use,

→ (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Now the value of slope is,

→ (-9 -(-5))/(-1 -(-9))

→ (-9 + 5)/(-1 + 9)

→ -4/8 = -1/2

Hence, the slope is -1/2.

Answer 2

`\sf (-1)/(2)`

Explanation:

Find the slope:

(-9 , -5) ⇒ x₁ = -9 ; y₁ = -5

(-1 , -9) ⇒ x₂ = -1 ; y₂ = -9

`\sf \boxed{Slope = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}`

`\sf = (-9-[-5])/(-1-[-9])\\\\\\=(-9+5)/(-1+9)\\\\\\=(-4)/(8)\\\\\\=(-1)/(2)`
