Answer:

The answer is option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\[/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(8, 10) and (-7, 14)

The slope is

[tex]m = \frac{14 - 10}{ - 7 - 8} = \frac{4}{ - 15} = - \frac{4}{15} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex] - \frac{4}{15} \\ [/tex]

Hope this helps you
