Answer:

The answer is

[tex] \huge - \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\ [/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]m = \frac{1 - 6}{7 - - 3} = \frac{ - 5}{10} = - \frac{1}{2} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex] - \frac{1}{2} \\ [/tex]

Hope this helps you
