Triangle MNP and triangle JKL are similar right triangles.

Write a proportion that represents similar triangles to find the slope of and  ___ and ___                                                                                                            JL         MP 

The image shows a coordinate plane graph with several labeled points and lines.

- **Axes**: The graph has an x-axis and a y-axis intersecting at the origin (0,0).

- **Points**: 
  - Point M is at (-10,10).
  - Point N is at (0,8).
  - Point J is at (-8,1).
  - Point K is at (2,1).
  - Point L is at (-2,-1).
  - Point P is at (6,-10).

- **Lines**:
  - A horizontal line connects points M and N.
  - A horizontal line connects points J and K.
  - A diagonal line passes through points M, L, and P, indicating a linear relationship. This line slopes downward, indicating a negative slope.

- **Grid**: The grid is marked with units along both axes, increasing by 1 in each direction.

This graph provides a visual representation of points and lines on a coordinate plane, useful for learning about coordinates, slope, and linear equations.
