Let be A(-4,4) and B(-1,-2).
When you need to find the slope of a line given the coordinates of 2 points, the slope can be found be dividing the subtraction of Y of both points as yB-yA by the subtraction of their Xs so xB-xA.
yB = -2, yA = 4, xB = -1, xA = -4
Slope = yB-yA / xB-xA = -2 - 4 / -1 - (-4) = -6/3 = -2.

So the slope of the line between (-4,4) and (-1,-2) is -2.

Hope this Helps! :)

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is D. $-5^x+3x-2$

<u>Step-by-step-explanation:</u>

We are given the following two functions:

$f(x)=-5^x-4$

and

$g(x)= -3x-2$

We are to find $(f-g)(x)$ so we will subtract the function g from function f, arrange the like terms together and combine them like shown below to get:
