Answer:
Slope of RS = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of a line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by,
m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
From the graph attached,
Vertices R and S have the coordinates as (3, -2) and (1, -6) respectively.
Slope of the line RS = [tex]\frac{-2+6}{3-1}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]
= 2
Therefore, slope of the segment RS is 2.
