Solution:

Given the endpoints of the line;

[tex](0,5),(6,4)[/tex]

The slope, m of the line is;

[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ \\ \text{ Where }x_1=0,y_1=5,x_2=6,y_2=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus;

[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{4-5}{6-6} \\ \\ m=-\frac{1}{6} \end{gathered}[/tex]

CORRECT ANSWER:

[tex]-\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
