Use the following formula to calculate the slope os a line:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are any pair of points of the line.

Use, for instance:

(x1,y1) = (-7,7)

(x2,y2) = (4,-8)

and replace these values into the formula for m:

m = (-8 - 7)/(4 -(-7))

m = (-15)/(4 + 7)

m = -15/11

Hence, the slope of the given line is -15/11
