The slope of the graphed is
(8)/(5).

Solution:

Two points represented in the line are (2, 4) and (–3, –4).

Here,
x_1=2, y_1=4,x_2=-3,y_2=-4

To find the slope of the line:


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

Substitute the given points in the formula.


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


$m=(-8)/(-5)


$m=(8)/(5)

Slope of the line
(8)/(5).

Hence the slope of the graphed is
(8)/(5).
