Answer:

[tex]\Huge\boxed{\mathsf{-\frac{9}{7} }}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

SLOPE FORMULA:

[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}  }[/tex]

Y2=(-3)

Y1=6

X2=5

X1=(-2)

Solve.

[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{(-3)-6}{5-(-2)}=\frac{(-3)-6}{5+2}= \frac{-9}{7}=\boxed{\mathsf{-\frac{9}{7}}  }}[/tex]

The slope is -9/7.

Answer:

The answer is B
