• Coordinates (x, y)
• Slope Formula:
  `\displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (0, -7)

Point (7, 0)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:
   `\displaystyle m=(0+7)/(7-0)`
2. [Fraction] Add/Subtract:
   `\displaystyle m=(7)/(7)`
3. [Fraction] Divide:
   `\displaystyle m=1`
