Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf{10}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula.

Slope:

[tex]\sf{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}}=\dfrac{rise}{run} [/tex]

y2=6

y1=(-4)

x2=2

x1=4

Solve.

[tex]\sf{\dfrac{6-\left(-4\right)}{2-1}}=\dfrac{6+4=10}{2-1=1}=\dfrac{10}{1}=\boxed{\sf{10}} [/tex]

Therefore, the slope is 10, which is our answer.
