Answer:

The answer is


\huge - (6)/(11) \\

Explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula


m = ( y_2 - y _ 1)/(x_ 2 - x_ 1) \\

From the question we have


m = (8 - 2)/( - 6 - 5) = (6)/( - 11) = - (6)/(11) \\

We have the final answer as


- (6)/(11) \\

Hope this helps you
