Solution:
We want to find the slope if the line passing through (3, -1) and (-2, -5)
[tex]\begin{gathered} Slope=\text{ }\frac{change\text{ in y}}{change\text{ in x}} \\ Change\text{ in y = -5-\lparen-1\rparen = -5+1=-4} \\ Change\text{ in x = -2-3=-5} \\ Slope=\frac{-4}{-5} \\ Slope=\frac{4}{5} \\ The\text{ answer is }\frac{4}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]
