Answer:

10/3

Explanation:

(-2, 6) & (-5, -4)

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values:

(-4 - 6) / (-5 - (-2))

Simplify the parentheses.

= (-4 - 6) / (-5 + 2)

= - 10 / -3

Simplify the fraction.

-10/-3

= 10/3

This is your slope.

Hope this helps!
