B -2
C 1/2
D 2

Respuesta :

The answer is B -2... you welcome

Answer:

B )  -2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of given points

slope [tex]m= \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }[/tex]

The given points are

[tex]m = \frac{-4-8}{5-(-1)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-12}{6}[/tex]

[tex]m=-2[/tex]

final answer :-

slope of the line is m=-2
