Answer:

The answer is Slope of CD = -5/4.

Explanation:

The question is missing important information like the values for which the slope has to be find

Points A(0,-1), B(5,3), C(2,3), D(6,-2) is missing in the question

Formula for slope:

Slope =
(y_(2)- y_(1)) /
(x_(2) -x_(1))

C(2,3), is
(x_(1),y_(1))

D(6,-2) is
(x_(2),y_(2)) . for slope of CD.

Putting values in the formula.

Slope =
(-2-3) /
(6-2)

Slope = -5/4

This formula can be used for for finding slope for values of A and B similarly.
