Hey!
Algebra is gr8. In this case, what you would do is use the slope formula;
Explanation:
Where m = slope, and each 'y' or 'x' term is inserted from your coordinate points!
(5, -6)(2, 5)
'5' is
'-6' is
'2' is
'5' is
(Respectively, if you haven't noticed :)
Plug them in!
(Remember, two negatives cancel out, so the top will be 5 + 6)
Your slope is
Or approximately 3.67 (rounded)
