The absolute value is how far away a number is from the number line, so it is always positive. If Carlos finds the opposite of the absolute value, that means he found the negative version. So Jason's final value will be greater.
Use the slope formula
y2-y1
m=---------
x2-x1
(rise-->y over run-->x)
so it would be
9-5
m=-------
1-10
and that would simplify to
4
----
-9
and that would be your slope.
Hope that helped :-)
