Answer:
7/9

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that the problem gave you was written in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form: Y=mx+b

What the variables mean in slope-intercept form:
Y = the y axis
M = the slope
X = the x axis
B = the point on the line that intercepts the y axis (this is called the y-intercept)

Now knowing this, it’s clear that 7/9 in the equation is the M variable. Because the M variable represents the slope, 7/9 is therefore the slope of the line
