Answer:


-(3)/(5)

Explanation:

Use the slope formula:


(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1)) =(rise)/(run)

Slope is the change in the y values over the change in the x values. Insert values:


(-3_{x_(1)},4_{y_(1)})\\\\(7_{x_(2)},-2_{y_(2)})\\\\(-2-4)/(7-(-3))

Simplify:


(-2-4)/(7+3)=(-6)/(10) =-(3)/(5)

Therefore, the slope is
-(3)/(5).
