Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
use the slope formula Faith,
point P1 (-2a,0) in the form (x1,y1)
point P2(0,-2b) in the form (x2,y2)
slope = m
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
m = (-2b - 0 ) / (0-(-2a))
m = -2b / 2a
m = - b/a
they are trying to confuse you with the "a" and "b" variables in the problem, but just use the rules you know to solve what you can :)
