slope is -10

Explanation:

If you have 2 points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2), then your slope or gradient will be m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Therefore, m=(-1-9)/(10-9)=-10

color(blue)(" Slope " = m = -10

Explanation:

Slope of an equation knowing coordinates of two points on the line is given by

"Slope " = m = (y_2 - y_1) / (x_2 - x_1)

(x_1, y_1) = 910, -1), (x_2, y_2) = (9,9)
