Answer:

5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use rise over run, (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(5 - 15) / (4 - 8)

-10 / -4

= 5/2

So, the slope of the line is 5/2

Answer:

5/2 or 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: [tex]\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}[/tex]

Plug in:

[tex]\frac{5-15}{4-8}[/tex]

5 - 15 = -10

4 - 8 = -4

-10       5

----   =  ----

-4        2

Slope is 5/2 or 2.5.

Hope this helped.
