Answer:

The gradient is -0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-5,3)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (5,0.5)[/tex]

Required

The gradient (m)

This is calculated as:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{0.5-3}{5--5}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-2.5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]m = -0.25[/tex]
