Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Given


Point\ 1: -1, -10 ---
(x_1,y_1)

The second point is incomplete. So, I will make assumptions


Point\ 2:1, -4 --
(x_2,y_2)

Required

Calculate the slope (m)

This is calculated as:


m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)


m = (-4 - (-10))/(1 - (-1))


m = (-4 +10)/(1 +1)


m = (6)/(2)


m =3

Using the assumed values, the slope is 3
