  • Slope Formula: [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-7, 0)

Point (4, -2)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

  1. Substitute in points [SF]:                     [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-2-0}{4--7}[/tex]
  2. [Fraction] Simplify:                               [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-2-0}{4+7}[/tex]
  3. [Fraction] Subtract/Add:                     [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-2}{11}[/tex]
