what is the slope of the
line that passes through
the point
(-6,-1) and (2,-5)

y=-1/2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

m=-5 - -1  = -4

       2 - -6  = 8

or...      m=-1/2

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=-1/2x+b

the answer is  

a.
