Answer:

slope = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 9 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (12, 6 )

m = [tex]\frac{6-(-9)}{12-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6+9}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
