The slope of the line is -7/6.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
From the table shown, it can be determined that the given points (x,y) are (-2,1) , (4,-6) and (10,-13).
<u>To find the slope :</u>
The slope formula is used.
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Take any two points from the given points in the table.
Let,
(x1,y1) be (-2,1) and (x2,y2) be (10,-13)
Substituting the values of x1= -2, y1= 1, x2= 10, y2= -13 in the slope formula,
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
⇒ (-13 - 1) / (10 + 2)
⇒ -14 / 12
⇒ -7/6
Therefore, the slope can be found in the similar way by using any of the two points that lies on the line. The slope of the line is -7/6.
