Slope of the line through the points (-1, 7) and (3, 3)



m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29


m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+%28x%5B1%5D%29%29


m+=+%283+-+7%29%2F%283+-+%28-1%29%29


m+=+%283+-+7%29%2F%283+%2B+1%29


m+=+%28-4%29%2F%284%29


m+=+-1



Answer: Slope is m+=+-1
