Answer:
The slope of the line segment is [tex]m=-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
we have the points
(2,-5) and (-1, -1)
substitute in the formula
[tex]m=\frac{-1+5}{-1-2}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{4}{-3}[/tex]
[tex]m=-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
