Hello! The formula for finding slope is y2- y1 / x2- x1. That means subtract the first y-coordinate from the second y-coordinate and the first x-coordinate from the second x-coordinate. Plug in the values to have it like this: -1 - 4 / 2 - (-3). When you subtract the numbers, you get -5/5 or just simply -1. The slope of the line is -1.

Slope formula:
First, you would need to plug the coordinates into the formula for slope.
Now, all you have to do is solve and simplify it.
=
=
-1
The slope of the line is -1.
I hope this helps!
