Answer:

[tex] \huge \boxed{ \boxed{ - \frac{6}{7} }} \\ [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]m = \frac{ - 3 - - 9}{ - 5 - 2} = \frac{ - 3 + 9}{ - 5 - 2} = - \frac{6}{7} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex] - \frac{6}{7} \\ [/tex]

Hope this helps you
