Answer:

The slope m is;

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the slope of a line that passes through the points;

$\begin{gathered} (10,6) \\ \text{and} \\ (1,13) \end{gathered}$

Recall that the slope m of a line can be calculated using the formula;

$m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$

Substituting the given coordinates we have;

$\begin{gathered} m=(13-6)/(1-10) \\ m=(7)/(-9) \\ m=-(7)/(9) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the slope m is;
