Answer:

y= 11

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\boxed{slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }[/tex]

Substituting the coordinates and value of slope:

[tex] \frac{y - ( - 3)}{3 - ( - 4)} = 2[/tex]

[tex] \frac{y + 3}{3 + 4} = 2[/tex]

[tex] \frac{y + 3}{7} = 2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 7:

y +3= 2(7)

y +3= 14

Subtract 3 from both sides:

y= 14 -3

y= 11
