Answer:

m=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is:

[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

Plug the numbers into this formula

[tex]\frac{3-7}{2--2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-4}{4}[/tex]

-1

So the slope is -1

Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points (-2 ,7 ) and (2 ,3 )

Now slope can be calculated by using the formula

[tex]slope(m) = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{7 - 3}{ - 2 - 2} [/tex]

= 4/-4

= -1
