x1=-7.5 y1=18.8 x2=-4.9 y2=9.3
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(9.3-18.8)/(-4.9-(-7.5))
=-9.5/2.6

The slope is given by the rise (vertical space between the points) divided by the run (horizontal space between the points). The rise is 9.5 as given by 18.8 - 9.3 and the run is -2.6 as given by -7.5 - -4.9. That means the slope given by 9.5 divided by -2.6 is approximately -3.654 or -95/26.
