Answer 1

D)
`(-3)/(2)`

The slope of the line m =
`(-3)/(2)`

Explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the points are (-4,10) and (4,-2)

we have to find that the slope of the line

Step(ii):-

Solution:-

`m = (y_(2) -y_(1) )/(x_(2) -x_(1) )`

`m = (-2-10)/(4-(-4) )`

`m = (-12)/(8) = (-3)/(2)`

Final answer:-

The slope of the line m =
`(-3)/(2)`
