The slope of the line passes through the points (-5,6) and (-3,2) is 2.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

Slope or the gradient is the number or the ratio which determines the direction or the steepness of the line. The slope is also defined as the ratio of the rise to the run.

Given that the line that passes through the points (-5,6) and (-3,2).

The slope of the line is calculated by the formula,

Slope = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Slope = ( 6 - 2) / ( -3 + 5)

Slope = 4 / 2

Slope = 2

Therefore, the slope of the line passes through the points (-5,6) and (-3,2) is 2.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving inequalities is easy, you just need to follow the standard rules of algebra. Also, when multiplying or dividing by a negative number, the inequality sign is reversed.

Step 1: Divide by 5

x < 2

Step 2: Check

5(1) < 10

5 < 10✔️

Step 3: Check Again

Since an inequality has multiple solutions, it is important to check at least 2, to determine if the entire range of solutions is true.

5(-6) < 10

-30 < 10✔️

Step 4: Verified Answer

x < 2

I'm always happy to help :)
