Instructions: Find the slope of the line through the pair of points. Use the forward slash (i.e. "/") for all fractions (e.g. -1/2 is the same as −12). Make sure to reduce all fractions.

Given the following question:
(-9, 5) = (x1, y1)
(-11, -9) = x2, y2)
The formula for slope:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} \\ \frac{-9-5}{-11--9} \\ -9-5=-14 \\ -11--9=-2 \\ =\frac{-14}{-2}=-14\div-2=7 \\ m=7 \end{gathered}[/tex]
