#m=1#

Slope can be found by calculating #m=(Deltay)/(Deltax)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)#.

For this problem we have #(4,9)# and #(1,6)# to substitute for #(x_1,y_1)# and #(x_2,y_2)# (it doesn't actually matter which has which subscripts):

#m= (6-9)/(1-4) = (-3)/(-3) =1#

The slope would be 1.

Slope is #(Δy)/(Δx)#, so in your case it would be #(9-6)/(4-1) = 3/3 = 1#
