Explanation:

Hey there!!

Here, the points are,

(-12,-1) and (-2,3)

Now,

Using slope formulae,


slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)


slope = (3 + 1)/( - 2 + 12)


slope = (4)/(10)

Therefore the slope is 2/5.

Hope it helps...

We can use the points given to solve.

Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

3-(-1)/-2-(-12)

4/10

2/5

Best of Luck!
