Answer:

If you have choices it is either -5 or 5.

Explanation:

First, you find two points, which mine were (0,2) and (-1,7). The slope formula is y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1. So, im going to subtract 7 - 2, which is your y2 - y1, to get 5. Then, i'm going to subtract -1 - 0, which is your x2 - x1, to get -1. Then, you divide 5 by -1 to get -5. I Hope This Helps :)
