What is the slope between -4, 5 and -8,-5

m= -10/-4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope you need to use slope formula, which is:

m = y2-y1 over x2-x1

m = -5 - 5 over -8 - (-4)

m = -10/-4

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
