Slope of the line is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are,

(-5.5,6.1),(-2.5,3.1)

Here,

[tex]x_{1} = -5.5 ,\ \ \ x_{2}=-2.5\\y_{1} = 6.1,\ \ \ y_{2}=3.1[/tex]

Slope = m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x{1}}[/tex]

Putting values;

[tex]m=\frac{3.1-6.1}{-2.5-(-5.5)}\\m=\frac{-3}{-2.5+5.5}\\m=\frac{-3}{3}\\m=-1[/tex]

Slope of the line is -1.
