Find the slope of the line that passes through (10, 7) and (3, 15).

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

`\dashrightarrow\large\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{Answer and how to solve:-}}}`

We can find the slope using the following formula:-

`\boxed{(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}`

Replace the letters with numbers:-

`\boxed{(15-7)/(3-10)}`

`\bigstar` On simplification,

`\boxed{(8)/(-7)}`

`\bigstar` The slope is

`\boxed{-(8)/(7)}`

Good luck with your studies.
