Answer:
slope = - [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (8, - 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 6, - 3 )
m = [tex]\frac{-3-(-4)}{-6-8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3+4}{-14}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{-14}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex]
