The slope of the line is defined as (change in y by change in x)

$Slope = (\frac{△ y}{△ x}) = (\frac{x_{2} - x_{1}}{y_{2} - y_{1}})$ $color(purple)("Slope"=((triangley)/(trianglex))=((x_2-x_1)/(y_2-y_1))$

In the two points

$(- 3, 2) = (x_{1}, y_{1})$ $(-3,2)=(x_1,y_1)$

$(7, 2) = (x_{2}, y_{2})$ $(7,2)=(x_2,y_2)$

$:.$ $"Slope"=((2-2)/(7-(-3)))$

$rarr0/(7+3)$

$color(green)(rArr0$
