To find the slope of ST, we need to use the formula for slope:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
In this case, point S is (5, 2) and point T is (2, 6). Plugging in the coordinates:
m = (6 - 2) / (2 - 5)
m = 4 / -3
m = -4/3
Therefore, the slope of line ST is -4/3.
triangle RST is shown on the coordinate graph what is the slope of ST?
S- 5,2
t- 2,6

it says its wrong
I apologize for the error. Let's reevaluate the slope calculation.
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (6 - 2) / (2 - 5)
m = 4 / -3
m = -4/3
The calculation appears to be correct. Let me know if there is any additional information that may help address this question.
