Answer:

[tex]slope=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the two points (-9,-3) and (7, -7) w have to use the slope formula

[tex]slope=\frac{y_{2}- y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]             [tex]slope=\frac{(-7)- (-3)}{7 -(-9) }[/tex]      

[tex]slope=\frac{-4 }{16}=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]  can also be written as a decimal  [tex]slope=-0.25[/tex]

we get - 1/4 because -4 divided by -4 is 1 and -4 divided by 16 is -4
