Answer:

slope = [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Calculate the slope using slope formula, [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]. Use the two points given, substitute their x and y values into the formula, and solve.

[tex]\frac{(10)-(-2)}{(-11)-(19)} \\= \frac{10+2}{-11-19} \\= \frac{12}{-30}\\= -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Thus, the slope is [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex].
