Answer:

Slope m=-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is m=dy/dx=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), where index 1 refers to the first point (-3,5). The index 2 refers to the second point (-5,6).

We get:

m=(6-5)/((-5)-(-3))=1/(-5+3)=-1/2

Answer:

- 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = y2- y1/x2 - x1

Given

x1 = -3

y1 = 5

x2 = -5

y2 = 6

Therefore

Slope = 6 - 5 /-5 -(-3)

= 6-5/-5+3

= 1/-2

= - 1/2
