Answer:

1. 3

2. [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the line= [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{deltay}{deltax}[/tex]=[tex]\\ \frac{y\\ 2-y\\ 1}{x\\ 2-x\\ 1}[/tex]

1. (5, 5) (4, 2)

[tex]\frac{2-5}{5-5}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{2+(-5)}{4+(-5)}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{-3}{-1}[/tex]= 3

2. (-5, 1) (-2, 3)

[tex]\frac{3-1}{-2-(-5)}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{3-1}{-2+5}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
