Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

REmember that the slope of a line is y/x. To find this, we must use the formula:

y2-y1/x2-x1=y/x

So this is -1 - -7/4- -5. The  -1 -- 7 is actually -1+7. This is 6, meaning y equals 6.

The x is 4 - - 5 is actually 4+5. This is 9, meaning x is equal to 9.

We can now write this as y/x. This would be 6/9.

Once we simplfy this, we get 2/3.

Answer:

2/3
