Slope of the line through the points (-1, 1) and (-2, -5)



m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29


m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+%28x%5B1%5D%29%29


m+=+%28-5+-+1%29%2F%28-2+-+%28-1%29%29


m+=+%28-5+-+1%29%2F%28-2+%2B+1%29


m+=+%28-6%29%2F%28-1%29


m+=+6



Answer: Slope is m+=+6
