Answer:

7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the formula to find the slope of a line given two points (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂)

The formula is:

[tex]m= \frac{y{_2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}  } \\\\[/tex]

So, we're going to use the points (2,5), (-3, -2) in this formula.

[tex]m= \frac{-2-(5)}{-3-(2)} \\m=\frac{-2-5}{-3-2}\\m=\frac{-7}{-5} \\m=\frac{7}{5}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope is 7/5
