Answer:

Slope = -1

Explanation:

Given coordinates,

→ x1 = -2

→ y1 = 1

→ x2 = -3

→ y2 = 2

Now we have to,

→ Find the slope using slope formula.

Formula we use,

→ Slope (m) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Let's find the required slope,

→ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

→ m = (2 - 1)/(-3 - (-2))

→ m = (2 - 1)/(-3 + 2)

→ m = 1/(-1)

→ [ m = -1 ]

Hence, the value of slope is -1.
