Question

Pleasee helpppppp meeeee

Answer 1

slope = -
`(1)/(3)`

Explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (7, 2) ← 2 points on the line

substitute these values into the formula for m

m =
`(2-5)/(7-(-2))` =
`(-3)/(7+2)` =
`(-3)/(9)` = -
`(1)/(3)`
