Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 8-4)/( -1 --5)

   = 4/( -1+5)

   = 4/4

   =1

You need the slope, so start with the slope formula.

slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

Substitute (-5, 4) for (x₁, y₁) and (-1, 8) for (x₂, y₂).

So we have 8 - 4 / -1 - -5.

Simplify to find the answer.

So we have 4/4 which is 1.
