Answer:
Slope of the line passing through the points (-5,7) and (-3,5) is -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
slope of line passing through point (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by
m = (x2-x1)/(y2-y1)
____________________________________________
In the problem given points are (-5,7) and (-3,5)
using the formula for finding slop ewe have
m = (-3-(-5))/(5-7)
=> m = (-3+5)/-2
=> m = 2/-2
=> m = -1
Thus, slope of the line passing through the points (-5,7) and (-3,5) is -1.
