Hello!

Slope formula:

y2-y1/x2-x1

y2: 8

y1: 1

x2: -7

x1: -6

Plug given values into the equation:

8-1/-7 - (-6)

Subtract

7/-1

Divide

-7

The slope is -7

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 points, we can use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1) /(x2-x1)

    = ( 8-1)/( -7 - -6)

   = ( 8-1) / ( -7+6)

   = 7/ -1

  = -7
