Answer:

slope:2

Explanation:

Slope is rise/run, or change in y/change in x.

With that being said, we only need two points to solve this.

Let's take the points (0,7) and (1,9)

The formula for finding the slope from two points is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1).

M is the slope.

y2 would be the y-value of the second point,9. y1 would be the y-value of the first point, 7.

x2 would be the x-value of the second point, 1. x1 would be the x-value of the first point, 0.

Plugging those values in to the formula, we get m=(9-7)/(1-0)

Simplifying, we get m=2/1, which is m=2.
