the pair of points (-4,y)and (6,5) lie on a line with a slope of .

To find the slope between two points, we can use the formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Given the points (-4, y) and (6, 5), we can substitute their values into the formula:

m = (5 - y) / (6 - (-4))

Simplifying further:

m = (5 - y) / (6 + 4)
m = (5 - y) / 10

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (-4, y) and (6, 5) is (5 - y) / 10.
