Answer 1

Given: The formula for slope is given

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Required: To find the slope between (-3,7) and (5,-9).

Explanation: Here,

`\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1)=(-3,7) \\ (x_2,y_2)=(5,-9) \end{gathered}`

Putting these values in the formula for slope we get,

`\begin{gathered} m=(-9-7)/(5-(-3)) \\ m=-(16)/(8) \\ m=-2 \end{gathered}`

Final Answer:

`Slope=-2`
