Basically the formula of finding slope is (y^2- y^1)

(x^2- x^1)

So let's substitute the numbers in:

(-2,4) (5,3)

-2 is x^1 and 5 is x^2

4 is y^1 and 3 is y^2

Okay if y^2=3 and y^1=5, let's substitute the "Y" values of the equation.

(3-4)

(x^2- x^1)

Okay if x^2=5 and x^1=-2

The last substitution should look like this.

(3-4)

(5-[-2])

Let's simplify:

-1

7

Therefore the slope is

-1

7

Let's look at the "X" values.
