Answer:

Answer is m= -5/7

Explanation:

Given points are (-4,2) and (3,-3)


we \: know \: that \: \\ slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) \\ here \: x1 = - 4 \: \: \: x2 = 3 \\ y1 = 2 \: \: y2 = - 3 \\ on \: substituting \: the \: values \\ = ( - 3 - 2)/(3 - ( - 4)) \\ = - ( - 5)/(3 + 4) \\ = ( - 5)/(7) \\ slope \: is \: ( - 5)/(7)

HAVE A NICE DAY!
