(0, 0) and (5, -1)

Slope equation : m = (y₂-y₁) / (x₂-x₁)

Plug everything in :)

m = (-1 - 0) / (5 - 0)

Simplify.

m = -1/5

So, the slope is -1/5

~Hope I helped!~

Answer:

$\rm - \dfrac{11}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\rm Simplify \: the \: following: \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 5 + \dfrac{i}{2} i \\ \\ \rm Combine \: powers. \\ \rm \dfrac{i \times i}{2} = \dfrac{i^{1 + 1}}{2}: \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 5 + \dfrac{i^{1 + 1}}{2} \\ \\ \rm 1 + 1 = 2: \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 5 + \dfrac{i^2}{2} \\ \\ \rm i^2 = -1: \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 5 + \dfrac{( - 1)}{2} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 5 - \dfrac{1}{2} \\ \\ \rm Put \: - 5 - \dfrac{1}{2} \: over \: the \: common \: denominator \: 2. \\ \rm - 5 - \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{2( - 5)}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2} : \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 5 \times 2}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2} \\ \\ \rm 2 (-5) = -10: \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 10}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2} \\ \\ \rm \dfrac{ - 10}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{ - 10 - 1}{2} : \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 10 - 1}{2} \\ \\ \rm -10 - 1 = -11: \\ \rm \longrightarrow - \dfrac{11}{2}$
