Question 27761: what would the slope of the line be through the two points (-4,-2) and (-1,-1)
I do not understand this could someone please help???

It would probably help you if you knew the formula for the slope, m.
Slope is Rise over Run, or in algebrese:
Where: (-4, -2) is (x1, y1) and (-1, -1) is (x2, y2)
So try plugging in the numbers and see what you get.
