find the slope of the line through each pair of points 1.(19,-16)(-7,-5)​

SOLUTION:[tex]\begin{aligned} m & = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \\ & = \frac{-5 - (-16)}{-7 - 19} \\ & = \frac{-5 + 16}{-26} \\ & = \frac{11}{-26} \\ & = \boxed{-\frac{11}{26}} \end{aligned}[/tex]Hence, the slope of the line is -11/26.
