Hello!

Hint: ⇒ Slope formula: ⇒
(Y_2-Y_1)/(X_2-X_1)


Y_2=7\\ Y_1=0\\\\X_2=2\\X_1=-3


(7-0)/(2-(-3))=(7)/(5)


\boxed{(7)/(5)}\checkmark


\boxed{(7)/(5)}, which is our correct answer.

Hope this helps you!

Have a great day! :)

Answer:

slope =
(7)/(5)

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 7)

m =
(7-0)/(2+3) =
(7)/(5)
