Answer:

Therefore, the slope is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula.

SLOPE:

[tex]:\Longrightarrow \sf{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} }[/tex]

  • y2=(-19)
  • y1=1
  • x2=0
  • x1=4

[tex]\sf{\dfrac{-19-1}{0-4}=\dfrac{-20}{-4}=\boxed{\sf{5}}[/tex]

The slope is 5.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
