[tex]Slope = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1} [/tex] where the points are (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂).

So, plugging in the points we were given
[tex]Slope = \frac{0 -(-10)}{-4-0} = \frac{10}{-4} = \boxed{\bf{-\frac{5}{2}}}[/tex]

The slope is -5/2.

Hi there! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]SLOPE=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{0-(-10)}{(-4)-0}=\frac{10}{-4}=\frac{10/2}{-4/2}=\frac{5}{-2}=-\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Slope is -5/2

Final answer is -5/2

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a nice day! :)

:D
