Answer 2

Hey there,

This question is asking us to find the slope using the given points. In order to do that we use the equation:

• 
  `(y_(2) - y_(1) )/(x_(2) - x_(1) )`

Now we use the points and plug them into the equation above:

• 
  `((3)-(5))/((-2)-(-7))` =
  `(-2)/(5)`

Therefore the slope of the line that passes through the points (-7, 5) and (-2, 3) would be
`-(2)/(5)`

Hope I helped,
