Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = run/rise

rise = vertical distance = difference in y-coordinates

run = horizontal distance = difference in x-coordinates

Find the rise = difference in the y-coordinates: 5 - 9 = -4

Find the run = difference in the x-coordinates in the same order: -2 - 4 = -6

Divide the rise by the run: slope = -4/-6

Reduce the fraction: slope = 2/3
