Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\bf\:m=-3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope can be found using the following formula [tex]\downarrow[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}}[/tex]

Here,

[tex]\star \: x_{1} = 1\\\star \:x_{2} = 6\\\star \:y_{1} = 5\\\star \:y_{2} = -10[/tex]

Then,

[tex]Slope \: (m)\\= \frac{-10-5}{6-1}\\= -\frac{15}{5}\\= \boxed{\bf\:-3}[/tex]

[tex]\rule{150pt}{2pt}[/tex]
