Given:
Two points are (5,-2) and (6,-5).
Required:
Find the slope for the given set.
Explanation:
The slope of the line passes through from the point
[tex](x_1,y_1)\text{ and \lparen x}_2,y_2)[/tex]is given by the formula:
[tex]slope\text{ m =}\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]Thus the slope of the given points is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{-5-(-2)}{6-5} \\ =\frac{-5+2}{1} \\ =-3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final Answer:
The slope for the given point set is -3.f
