Help pls will give branliiest if you explain

Answer 1

slope = - 2

Explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (11, - 17) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 1) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m =
`(1-(-17))/(2-11)` =
`(1+17)/(-9)` =
`(18)/(-9)` = - 2
