Respuesta :

Space

Answer:

[tex]m=-3[/tex]

The slope is negative.

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Slope Formula: [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-5, 19)

Point (-1, 7)

Step 2: Find slope m

  1. Substitute:                    [tex]m=\frac{7-19}{-1-(-5)}[/tex]
  2. Simplify:                        [tex]m=\frac{7-19}{-1+5}[/tex]
  3. Subtract/Add:               [tex]m=\frac{-12}{4}[/tex]
  4. Divide:                          [tex]m=-3[/tex]
