Answer:

The slope is -1.8

Explanation:

Given

The attached graph

Required

The slope

Let each box represents 1 unit on both axis.

So, we have:


(x_1,y_1) = (-3,4)


(x_2,y_2) = (2,-5)

The slope m is calculated as:


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


m=(-5 - 4)/(2 - (-3))


m=(-5 - 4)/(2 +3)


m=(-9)/(5)


m=-1.8
