Angelique Calculated the slope of a line that passed through points (-5,4) and (2,-3) her work is shown below. identify her error and correct her mistakes.

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 3 )
m = [tex]\frac{-3-4}{2-(-5)}[/tex]
Her error was subtracting 5 from 2 instead of - 5 from 2
m = [tex]\frac{-7}{2+5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-7}{7}[/tex] = - 1 ← corrected solution
