Answer:

-2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is found by

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (3-7)/(6 - -4)

   = -4/(6+4)

   - 4/(10)

    = -2/5

Answer:

[tex]m=\frac{-2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Plug in the numbers (coordinates) given, like so:

[tex]m=\frac{3-7}{6+4}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-4}{10}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]m=\frac{-2}{5}[/tex]
