Answer:

The answer is


\huge (10)/(9)

Explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula


m = ( y_2 - y _ 1)/(x_ 2 - x_ 1) \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(80, -94) and (89, -84)

We have


m = ( - 84 - - 94)/(89 - 80) = ( - 84 + 94)/(9) = (10)/(9) \\

We have the final answer as


(10)/(9) \\

Hope this helps you
