Answer:
[tex]the \: slope \: of \: the \: line \: is \to \underline {\boxed{- \frac{2}{5} }} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]the \: slope \: is \: given \: by \to \: \\ m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} \\ \boxed{but} \: \to\\ (x_{1}, \: y_{1}) = ( - 1, \:4) \\ (x_{2}, \: y_{2}) = (14, \: - 2) \\ m = \frac{ - 2 - 4}{14- ( -1)} = - \frac{6}{15} \\ \underline {\boxed{m = - \frac{2}{5} }} [/tex]
