What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (10,-6) and (8,-16)? Write your answer in simplest form.

The slope of the line that passes through the points (10,-6) and (8,-16) is   m = 5

The slope(m) of the line passing through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by the formula:

For the line that passes through the points (10,-6) and (8,-16)

x₁ = 10, y₁ = -6, x₂ = 8, y₂ = -16.

Substitute x₁ = 10, y₁ = -6, x₂ = 8, y₂ = -16 into the equation

The slope of the line that passes through the points (10,-6) and (8,-16) is m = 5

slope = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (10, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, - 16)

m = = = 5

i think the correct option is the second option.
