Your points are (-2, 7) and (18, 1). To find the slope, use the slope formula (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)
(18, 1) --> (x_2, y_2)
(-2, 7) --> (x_1, y_1)
(1 - 7)/(18 - (-2)) --> -6/20 --> -3/10
The slope of the line passing through the points (-2, 7) and (18, 1) is -3/10.

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: \(\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}\)

\(\frac{1-7=-6}{18-(-2)=18+2=20}=\frac{-6}{20}=\frac{-6/2}{20/2}=\frac{-3}{10}=-\frac{3}{10}\)

Slope is -3/10

Answer is -3/10

Hope this helps!
