Answer:

The slope of the line segment is $m=-\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have the points

(2,-5) and (-1, -1)

substitute in the formula

$m=\frac{-1+5}{-1-2}$

$m=\frac{4}{-3}$

$m=-\frac{4}{3}$
