remember that slope is change in y over change in x
(2- -6)/(-5 -7) = (8/-12) = -2/3

-2/3
Slope equals the change in y over the change in x. So solve for the two.
2-(-6)=8
(-5)-7)=-12
Then simplfy

Y1-Y2 divided by x1-x2=
8/-12= -2/3

You need to know how to find the slope not the answer. Answers for homework wont get you anywhere once the test comes. okay you get slope by (y2-y1/ x2-x1) when the points are in the form (x1,y1) (x2,y2)

the slope is -2/3
Me and the person above me are right
I know cause I am in Geometry Honors
Trust me
The equation is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
which when you subsitute the numbers in it is (-6 - 2)/(7 - -5)
