Answer:

5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = rise/run

slope=y2-y1/x2-x1

slope=9-(-1)/15-7=10/8=5/4

So the answer is 5/4.

Answer:

5/ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of a line is the rate of change of y co-ordinates with respect to the change in x co-ordinates.

therefore,

[tex]slope = \frac{9 - (-1}{15-7) } \\ = \frac{10}{8} \\ = \frac{5}{4} [/tex]

as we were given 2 points the rate of change of x and y co-ordinates will be equal to the difference between the values of each for the two points.
