The slope of a line that passes through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be found using the slope formula:
slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given the two points (-4, 7) and (-6, -4), we have:
x1 = -4, y1 = 7
x2 = -6, y2 = -4
Now, let's calculate the slope:
m = (-4 - 7) / (-6 - (-4))
m = (-11) / (-6 + 4)
m = (-11) / (-2)
m = 11 / 2
Therefore, the right answer is:
O 11/2
