If $(- 2, 7)$ $(-2,7)$ and $(- 3, 3)$ $(-3,3)$ are points, then the slope is $4$ $4$ .

Explanation:

Slope is $\frac{y - y_{1}}{x - x_{1}}$ $(y-y_1)/(x-x_1)$ . In this case, $y = 7$ $y=7$ and $y_{1} = 3$ $y_1=3$ , so $y - y_{1} = 4$ $y-y_1=4$ . $x = - 2$ $x=-2$ , and $x_{1} = - 3$ $x_1=-3$ , so $x - x_{1} = 1$ $x-x_1=1$ . Thus, the slope is $\frac{4}{1}$ $4/1$ , or just $4$ $4$ .
