Slope of a line passing through $(1, 9)$ $(1,9)$ and $(0, 6)$ $(0,6)$ is $3$ $3$

The slope of a line passing through $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ $(x_2,y_2)$ is

$\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$ $(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$ .

Hence, slope of a line passing through $(1, 9)$ $(1,9)$ and $(0, 6)$ $(0,6)$ is

$\frac{6 - 9}{0 - 1} = \frac{- 3}{- 1} = 3$ $(6-9)/(0-1)=(-3)/(-1)=3$

What is the slope of the line passing through the following points: (1,9), (0,6)(1,9),(0,6) (1,9), (0,6)?
