Slope is "rise" over "run". This is the difference of y coordinates (Δy) divided by the difference of x coordinates (Δx).
Δy = 7 - 4 = 3
Δx = 15 - 6 = 9
So the slope (m) is 3/9 which can be reduced to 1/3.
The correct answer is:
1/3

properly, to discover slope you take advantage of the equation: replace of y/replace of x. in different words, discover the replace between both y values and set it over the replace between both x values. Like so: a million. Take both coordinates. (5,4)(8,9) 2. Indentify the y values. 4 and 9. 3. Subtract 4 from 9, and also you get 5. 4. The discover both x values. 5 and eight. 5. Subtract 5 from 8, and also you get 3. 6. So, the reply is the replace in y over the replace in x, or 5/3. wish this permits!

slope = rise / run (or change in y divided by change in x)
therefore, slope = (7 - 4) / (15 - 6) = 3 / 9, which reduces to 1/3 (which is answer 3)
