Answer:

$\huge (7)/(8) \\$

Explanation:

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

$m = ( y_2 - y _ 1)/(x_ 2 - x_ 1) \\$

From the question we have

$m = ( - 9 - - 2)/( - 10 - - 2) = ( - 9 + 2)/( - 10 + 2) = ( - 7)/( - 8) = (7)/(8) \\$

We have the final answer as

$(7)/(8) \\$

Hope this helps you
