The slope of the line passing through points (-5,-2) and (3,-9) is -7/8.

To solve for the slope, we can use the slope formula:

m = (y2 — y1) / (x2 — x1)

Let (x1,y1) = (-5,2)
(x2,y2) = (3,-9)

Plug in the values into the slope formula:

m = (y2 — y1) / (x2 — x1)

m = [(-9 — (-2)] / [(3 — (-5)]

m = (-9 + 2) / (3 + 5)

m = -7/8

Therefore, the slope of the line is -7/8.
