Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:

Option A

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻


m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}

⸻⸻⸻⸻


m =(9-5)/(4+2)\\\\\\\rightarrow (4)/(6)\\\\\rightarrow (4/2)/(6/2)\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{ (2)/(3) }

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
