Hey there!

We're given 2 points that the line intersects, so we can easily determine the line's slope.

This is the formula:


\bold{\displaystyle(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) }


\bold{\displaystyle(5-(-6))/(-4-(-9))}


\bold{\displaystyle(5+6)/(-4+9)}


\bold{\displaystyle(11)/(5)}

Hence, the answer is


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{(11)/(5) }}}

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any other questions!
