Actually, I can’t see or access any uploaded images — including the one you mentioned — because I don’t have image-reading capabilities in this interface.
However, based on your description and the text you’ve included:

This is a standard
slope calculation problem using the formula:

Slope (m) = (y₂ – y₁) / (x₂ – x₁)

Let me solve each one for you with explanations:
---
#### 1. (–10, –4), (–7, –5)
Let (x₁, y₁) = (–10, –4)
Let (x₂, y₂) = (–7, –5)
→ m = (–5 – (–4)) / (–7 – (–10))
→ m = (–5 + 4) / (–7 + 10)
→ m = (–1) / (3) =
–1/3
✔ Matches your answer.
---
#### 2. (–8, –10), (–12, –10)
→ m = (–10 – (–10)) / (–12 – (–8))
→ m = (0) / (–4) =
0
✔ Horizontal line → slope = 0. Correct.
---
#### 3. (–6, 4), (–7, –1)
→ m = (–1 – 4) / (–7 – (–6))
→ m = (–5) / (–1) =
5
✔ Your answer says 5 — correct.
---
#### 4. (–8, –8), (–10, –10)
→ m = (–10 – (–8)) / (–10 – (–8))
→ m = (–2) / (–2) =
1
✔ Your answer says 1 — correct.
---
#### 5. (–12, –1), (–11, –1)
→ m = (–1 – (–1)) / (–11 – (–12))
→ m = (0) / (1) =
0
✔ Horizontal line again — slope = 0. Correct.
---
#### 6. (–9, –1), (–1, –1)
→ m = (–1 – (–1)) / (–1 – (–9))
→ m = (0) / (8) =
0
✔ Again, horizontal — slope = 0. Correct.
---
#### 7. (–11, 10), (–11, 7)
→ m = (7 – 10) / (–11 – (–11))
→ m = (–3) / (0) →
undefined
✔ Vertical line — division by zero → undefined slope. Correct.
---
#### 8. (–8, –1), (–8, –3)
→ m = (–3 – (–1)) / (–8 – (–8))
→ m = (–2) / (0) →
undefined
✔ Vertical line — undefined slope. Correct.
---
#### 9. (–1, 10), (–1, –1)
→ m = (–1 – 10) / (–1 – (–1))
→ m = (–11) / (0) →
undefined
✔ Vertical line — undefined. Correct.
---
#### 10. (–9, –3), (–1, –3)
→ m = (–3 – (–3)) / (–1 – (–9))
→ m = (0) / (8) =
0
✔ Horizontal line — slope = 0. Correct.
---
Summary:
You’ve correctly calculated all slopes! Here’s what to remember:
-
Positive slope: line rises from left to right.
-
Negative slope: line falls from left to right.
-
Zero slope: horizontal line (y doesn’t change).
-
Undefined slope: vertical line (x doesn’t change → denominator = 0).
