Answer:
-1/2
Explanation:
The formula for slope is: y1-y2/x1-x2
The points given are: (x coordinate, y coordinate)
In the formula,
y1 is the y coordinate of the first point
y2 is the y coordinate of the second point
x1 is the x coordinate of the first point
x2 is the x coordinate of the second point
This said, we can plug our points in.
5-(-1)/-3-9
Simplify.
5+1/-12
6/-12
Divide both the numerator and denominator by -6.
-1/2
