You can calculate slope by using the following equation: m=[tex] \frac{ y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x{1}} [/tex]
m being the slope
So applying this to your problem, you would just divide -8 by 6, which gives you -1.33 as your slope.

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: [tex]\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{(-2)-6=-8}{4-(-2)=4+2=6}=\frac{-8}{6}=\frac{-8/2}{6/2}=\frac{-4}{3}=\frac{-4/2=-2}{3}=-\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Slope is -2/3

Answer: -2/3

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
