Answer: 5

Explanation:

(4,3) (2,-7)

Put it in the equation of y2 - y1 over x2 - x1

-7-3 = -10 and 2 - 4 = -2 that will give you the fraction of -10/-2

Reduce the fraction and that will give you the answer of 5, slope = 5

In slope-intercept form it would be y - 3 = 5 (x - 4)

Hope this helps! ^^
