Answer:
-6/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope formula is y2-y1
____
x2-x1
In the ordered pair (-20,4)
-20 is x1 the first x and 4 is x1
-12 is the x2 i.e. 2nd point and -10 is y2 i.e. 2nd point on y axis
so we plug in the value to the formula -10-(-4) two negatives become +
_____
-12-(-20)
so -10+4 -6 6
____ = ___ = - _
-12+20 8 8
(remember you subtract and the signs are different you subtract and use the sign of larger number)
