Finding the slope using two points, (5, -1) and (-8, -4)
The formula for slope is
[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]
In this case...
[tex]y_{2} =-4\\y_{1} =-1\\x_{2} =-8\\x_{1} =-5[/tex]
^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...
[tex]\frac{-4-(-1)}{-8-5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{-3}{-13}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3}{13}[/tex]
^^^This is your slope
Hope this helped!
