Answer:
Denote that line: y = ax + b
Line passes (-2, 7) and (2,-5):
=> -2a + b =7
=> 2a + b = -5
Add both side of above equations:
=> 2b = 2
=> b = 1
=> a = (-5 - 1)/2 = -3
=> Slope a = -3
Hope this helps!

could you show me a picture so maybe i can answer it please
Answer:
Should be, (-3,5) (if rise over run aka y,x)
Step-by-step explanation:
When attempting to find a slope like this, you need to locate pretty points. Pretty points are any time the line meets an exact corner on the box. If you look at -3,1, you can see the line makes a pretty point there. Then, try to find the next one, which is at 2,-3. Once you found these pretty points, try to connect them by drawing a line towards each other THAT IS STRAIGHT until those intersect. Where they intersect is where the slope of the line is. In this case, when I drew the line, they met at <em>down three</em>, <em>over (right) 5.</em>
