Answer:

The answer is


\huge (2)/(3) \\

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 = (10 - 6)/(4 - - 2) = (4)/(4 + 2) = (4)/(6) = (2)/(3) \\

We have the final answer as


(2)/(3) \\

Hope this helps you
