Question

Find the slope of the line through

Answer 1

When finding the slope between two points, we simply take (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
For this, we can substitute the following to get this :
y2-y1 and x2-x1
1 - 4 and 7 - 1
-3 and 6
-3 / 6 gets you -1/2

Therefore the answer is :
The slope of the line is -1/2
