\huge\text{Hey there!}


\huge\textbf{What is the formula for finding slope?}


\mathbf{(y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = slope}


\huge\textbf{Often people understand it better by:}


\mathbf{(rise)/(run) = slope}


\huge\textbf{Answering the given question:}


\mathbf{y_2 \rightarrow 4}\\\\\mathbf{y_1 \rightarrow 7}\\\\\mathbf{x_2\rightarrow 0}\\\\\mathbf{x_1 \rightarrow -1}


\huge\textbf{Now, that we have that information out}\\\huge\textbf{the way, we can answer the question.}


\huge\textbf{Solving for the answer:}


\mathbf{(4 - 7)/(0 - (-1)) = slope}


\mathbf{\rightarrow (4 - 7)/(0 + 1) = slope}


\mathbf{\rightarrow (-3)/(1) = slope}


\mathbf{-3/ 1 = slope}


\mathbf{\rightarrow -3 = slope}


\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}


\huge\boxed{\textsf{S}\frak{lope \rightarrow -3}}\huge\checkmark
