EXPLANATION:
-We must first identify the points that correspond to the x-axis and the points that correspond to the y-axis.
-To calculate the slope, then we apply the formula of the slope or rate of change which is the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{the rate of change :} \\ m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\text{ } \end{gathered}[/tex]-now we must correctly locate the points in the formula.
[tex]\begin{gathered} G\text{ }(-13,-4),\text{ X1}=-13\text{ and y1}=-4 \\ B(7,-12);\text{ X2}=7\text{ and y2}=-12 \\ m=\frac{-12-(-4)}{7-(-13)}\text{ }=\frac{-12+4}{7+13}=\frac{-8}{20}=\frac{-4}{10} \\ simplify;\text{ }\frac{-4}{10}=\frac{-2}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]-
