Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula to find slope is y2-y1/x2-x1
Chose one ordered pair to be the 2 and the other one to be the 1
I chose the 2nd one to be 2.
Plug in the y-value from the 2nd ordered pair to y2 because its the 2.
Plug in the x-value from the 2nd ordered pair to x2 because its the 2.
Now you have 0-y1/5-x1
Do the same thing but for the 1.
Plug in the y-value from the 1st ordered pair to y1 because its the 1.
Plug in the x-value from the 1st ordered pair to x1 because its the 1.
Now you have 0-5/5--5
In this situation, you have 2 minus signs.
2 minus = 1 positive.
Now you have 0-5/5+5
Simplify.
Now you have -5/10.
Simplify.
-1/2.
Hope this helps!
