Answer:

Slope = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the change in y over the change in x

The slope formula is m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁ (y over x)

So, plug in your coordinates (the subscript represents the order in which your points are going to be subtracted in)

So, you would get m=-2-4/1-(-1)

Simplify (first subtract the top, then subtract the bottom)

This would get you to -6/2 (remember your rules: a negative and a negative makes a positive)

-6/2 would get you to -3

-3 is the answer
