Answer:

m = 6 units

Explanation:

To get from point (0, -1) to point (1, 5) that are on the line we have to go up 6 units and 1 unit to the right

slope = rise /run = 6/ 1 = 6

Answer:

6

Explanation:

We can use the points on the line to find the slope

(0,-1) and (1,5)

Using the slope formula

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

= (5 - -1)/(1-0)

= (5+1)/(1-0)

= 6/1

= 6
