Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:

m = 3

(7, -2)

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The equation given is in point-slope form.

⸻⸻⸻⸻


y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\\\m-\text{slope}\\\\(x_1,y_1)-\text{point}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The '3' is in the 'm' spot.

The y value is '-2', (y -(-2)) and the 'x' value is 7.

The point of the line is (7, -2) and the slope is 3.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
