Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the line passing through these two points.  The increase in x (run) from the first to the second is 14; the increase in y (rise) is 2.

Thus the slope of this line is m = rise/run = 2/14, or m = 1/7

Answer:

[tex]m = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope using two given sets of coordinates, the following function can be used:

[tex]m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]

Where x1,y1 are one set of coordinates and x2,y2 are the other set:

[tex]m = \frac{0 - (-2)}{-5 - (-9)}\\[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{0 + 2}{-5 + 9}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2}{4}[/tex]

This can be simplified down to:

[tex]m = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Hope this helps!
