Answer: 1.
-(5)/(6) 2.
-(1)/(3) . 3.

Explanation:

Formula: Slope
=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

1. (-2,2) (3,-3)

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

$=(-5)/(3+2)\\\\=(-5)/(6)$

Hence, slope of line passing through (-2,2) (3,-3) is
-(5)/(6) .

2. (-5,1) (4,-2)

Slope
=(-2-1)/(4-(-5))

$=(-3)/(4+5)\\\\=(-3)/(9)\\\\=-(1)/(3)$

Hence, slope of line passing through (-2,2) and (3,-3) is
-(1)/(3) .

3. (-1,5) (2,-4)

Slope
=(-4-5)/(2-(-1))

$=(-9)/(2+1)\\\\=(-9)/(3)\\\\=-3$

Hence, slope of line passing through (-1,5) and (2,-4) is -3.
