Slope of the line through the points (-5, 10) and (2, -7)



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+=+%28-7+-+10%29%2F%282+-+%28-5%29%29


m+=+%28-7+-+10%29%2F%282+%2B+5%29


m+=+%28-17%29%2F%287%29


Answer: Slope is m+=+-17%2F7
