Answer:

slope = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through the two points P=(x1,y1) and Q=(x2,y2) is given by m=y2−y1/x2−x1.

We have that x1=2, y1=5, x2=8, y2=−4.

Plug the given values into the formula for slope: m= (-4)-(5)/ (8)-(2) = -9/6 = -3/2

the slope of the line is m = -3/2
