The slope of the line passing through the given points is
(4)/(3).

Explanation:

Given,

Two points are (-20, -16) and (7,20)

To find the slope of the line passing through these points.

Formula

The slope of a line passing through the points (
x_(1) ,y_(1)) and (
x_(2) ,y_(2)) is
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

Now, Putting
x_(1) =-20, y_(1)=-16, x_(2)=7, y_(2)=20 we get,

Slope =
(20+16)/(7+20) =
(36)/(27) =
(4)/(3)
