We use the slope formula, which saws we divide $y_{2} - y_{1}$ $y_2 - y_1$ by $x_{2} - x_{1}$ $x_2 - x_1$ , or the second coordinate pair minus the first one

$(2, 7)$ $(2 ,7)$ and $(7, 2)$ $(7,2)$

$\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$ $(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$

$\frac{2 - 7}{7 - 2}$ $(2-7)/(7-2)$

$\frac{- 5}{5}$ $(-5)/(5)$

$- 1$ $-1$
