Answer:

Slope = -3

Explanation:

The slope of a line can be calculated as:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points in the line. So, if we replace (x1, y1) by (-4, 5) and (x2, y2) by (-2, -1), we get that the slope is equal to:

[tex]m=\frac{-1-5}{-2-(-4)}=\frac{-6}{-2+4}=\frac{-6}{2}=-3[/tex]

Therefore, the slope is -3
