Answer:

<h3>The answer is option C</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

We have

$m = \frac{4 - 7}{3 - - 1} = \frac{ - 3}{3 + 1} = - \frac{3}{4} \\$

We have the final answer as

$- \frac{3}{4} \\$

Hope this helps you
