slope = change in y's/change in x's
m = (-2 - 5) / (7-(-3))
m = -7 / 10 Yes.

subtract y from y and x from x:
-2 - 5 = -7
7 - -3 = 10
so yes, -7/10

ok check it out point slope form-
(y-y1) = m*(x-x1)
so
(-2-5) = m*(7-(-3))
-7 = m(10)
divide by 10
-7/10 = m
So righto!!!!!!!!!!

just remember this formula
(y2 - y1)/ (x2 - x1)
thats how you find m = slope
