Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line can be found using

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-4-8)/(5--1)

   = (-4-8)/(5+1)

   = -12/6

  = -2

Answer:

The slope is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is [tex]\Rightarrow \displaystyle \frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{(-4)-8}{5-(-1)}=\frac{-12}{6}=-2[/tex]

[tex]\Large\textnormal{Therefore, the slope is -2, which is our answer.}[/tex]

Hope this helps!
