Let $O$ be the origin. Points $P$ and $Q$ lie in the first quadrant. The slope of line segment $\overline{OP}$ is $4,$ and the slope of line segment $\overline{OQ}$ is $5.$ If $OP = OQ,$ then compute the slope of line segment $\overline{PQ}.$

 

Note: The point $(x,y)$ lies in the first quadrant if both $x$ and $y$ are positive.

The slope of line PQ is

mPQ=yqypxqxp=4.90294.85070.98061.2127

mPQ=0.2249

 

-0.2249 is the answer.
