Answer:

The answer is

[tex]- \frac{3}{10} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} [/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

A(-2,3) and B(-12,6)

The slope is

[tex]m = \frac{ 6 - 3}{ - 12 - - 2} = \frac{3}{ - 12 + 2} \\ = - \frac{3}{10} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]- \frac{3}{10} [/tex]

Hope this helps you
