Answer: 6/5

==================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the y coordinates: 9-3 = 6

Subtract the x coordinates in the same order: 10-5 = 5

Divide the differences:

slope = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x) = 6/5

-------------------

You could also use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (9-3)/(10-5)

m = 6/5
