Answer:
3 is your slope.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the equation:
slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (2 , 5)
(x₂ , y₂) = (-1 , -4)
Plug in the corresponding numbers for the corresponding variables.
slope = (-4 - 5)/(-1 - 2)
Simplify.
slope = (-9)/(-3)
slope = 3
3 is your slope. (Rise 3, Run 1)

Hi!
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]SLOPE=Y_2-Y_1=X_2-X_1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{(-4)-5}{(-1)-2}=\frac{-9}{-3}=3[/tex]
Slope is 3.
The answer must have a positive sign.
Hope this helps!
Have a nice day! :)
