Answer:

11/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula

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

    = (5 - -6)/(-4 - -9)

    = (5+6)/( -4+9)

   = 11/5

Let's find the slope using the graphing method.

First set up a coordinate system like I have done below.

Now, graph each ordered pair.

Let's call (-9, -6) point A and (-4, 5) point B.

Now remember that the slope or m is equal

to the rise over run from point A to point B.

To get from point A to point B, we rise 11 units and run 5 units.

So our slope is 11/5.
