Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to determine slope is [tex]\frac{y-y}{x-x}[/tex].

Knowing this you can fill in the formula with the numbers: [tex]\frac{2-4}{-8+9}[/tex]

2 - 4 is -2, so the numerator is -2.

-8 + 9 = 1, so your denominator is 1.

 

Therefore, your fraction is [tex]-\frac{2}{1}[/tex], or simply -2.
