To find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (-4, 4) and (3, 2), we can use the formula:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
Let's calculate the change in y and change in x:
Change in y = 2 - 4 = -2
Change in x = 3 - (-4) = 7
Now we can substitute these values into the formula:
slope = (-2)/(7)
The slope is negative two-sevenths.
