To find the slope of the line, use the slope formula (m is the slope):
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] And plug in the two points
(-4, 11) = (x₁, y₁)
(-2, 3) = (x₂, y₂)
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{3-11}{-2-(-4)}[/tex] [two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive]
[tex]m=\frac{3-11}{-2+4}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-8}{2}[/tex] Simplify
m = -4 Your answer is A
