Answer 2

Hey there,

This question is asking us to find the slope using the given points. In order to do that we use the equation:

• $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

Now we use the points and plug them into the equation above:

• $\frac{(3)-(5)}{(-2)-(-7)}$ = $\frac{-2}{5}$

Therefore the slope of the line that passes through the points (-7, 5) and (-2, 3) would be $-\frac{2}{5}$

Hope I helped,
