-7/-3
3/7
7/3
-3/-7

Answer 1

\[Slope = \frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\]

Answer 2

(x1,y1) (x2,y2)
Just to add, it doesn't matter which order you use to find the slope, you could have
y1-y2/x1-x2 or y2-y1/x2-x1, as long as you are consisten with the variable that comes first on the top and bottom.

Answer 3

@arooj so whats the answer
