Answer: 6

Explanation:

To find the slope of the line that contains the points (-6, 3) and (-13, -39), we can use the slope formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

where (x1, y1) = (-6, 3) and (x2, y2) = (-13, -39).

Plugging in the values, we get:

m = (-39 - 3) / (-13 - (-6))

m = (-42) / (-7)

m = 6

Therefore, the slope of the line that contains the points (-6, 3) and (-13, -39) is 6.
