Answer:


m = (9 - ( - 5))/(7 - 6) = (14)/(1) = 14

Hi there!

The question is asking us to find the slope, given the two points.

For that, I'll use the Slope Formula :


\sf{m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

where:

m = slope

Next, plug in the data:


\sf{m=(9-(-5))/(7-6)}


\sf{m=(9+5)/(1)}


\sf{m=14}

Therefore, the slope is 14.

Have a fantastic day!
