Answer:

The slope m is;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points (0,3) and (-2,-2).

we want to find the slope;

Recall that the formula for slope m is;

$m=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1_{}}$

substituting the given coordinates, we have;

$\begin{gathered} m=(-2-3)/(-2-0)=(-5)/(-2) \\ m=2.5 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the slope m is;
