Answer:

Slope = 4.5

Explanation:

We need to find the slope of a line through the points (0,0) and (2, 9).

We know that, the slope of a line is given by :


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

We have, x₁ = 0, x₂ = 2, y₁ = 0 and y₂ = 9

Put all the values,


m=(9-0)/(2-0)\\\\m=4.5

So, the slope of the line is 4.5.
