(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-7}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-7}-\stackrel{y1}{(-2)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{1}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}} \implies \cfrac{-7 +2}{1 +3} \implies \cfrac{ -5 }{ 4 } \implies {\Large \begin{array}{llll} - \cfrac{5 }{ 4 } \end{array}}
