Hello there!

We are given two points.

We use the following formula:

[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4-7}{0-(-1)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4-7}{0+1} \\\frac{-3}{1} \\-3[/tex]

So the slope is -3. Hope it helps!

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\sf Slope: -3}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points on the line, use the slope formula.

[tex]\boxed{\sf {Slope}=\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}[/tex]

x1 and y1 are the coordinates of the first point. The second point's coordinates are x2, y2.

[tex]\sf Points: \left(-1,\:7\right)\: and\: \left(0,\:4\right)[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\sf \left(x_1,\:y_1\right):\left(-1,\:7\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\sf \:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\left(0,\:4\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\longmapsto\sf slope\:(m)=\cfrac{4-7}{0-\left(-1\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\longmapsto\sf slope\:(m)=-3[/tex]
