Answer:
The answer to your question is m = 8/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
A ( 7, 2)
B (-4, - 6)
Slope measures the steepness of a line. Most of the time the slope is constant on a line.
Formula
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
x1 = 7 y1 = 2
x2 = -4 y2 = -6
-Substitution
m = (-6 - 2) / (-4 - 7)
-Simplification
m = -8 / -11
-Result
m = 8/11
