What’s the answer for a, and b, and how would you solve it?

Answer:
a) negative
b) -7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The x value increased, but the y value decreased so the line goes down and has a negative slope
(y₁-y₂)/(x₁-x₂) is the slope where (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) are points on the line
(4-(-3))/(-1-5)=7/-6
