Answer:
Slope = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can define the slope as the "change in y values" divided by the "change in x values".
By change in, we mean, 2nd point MINUS the first point values.
The points given is:
(1,4) & (-1,-1)
Change in y value:
-1 - 4 = -5
Change in x value:
-1 -1 = -2
Slope is -5/-2 = 5/2
There is no answer choice. The correct answer is 5/2
