Answer:

7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve use: [tex]m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

(-1,5) and (-7,-9)

x1  y1       x2  y2

m= [tex]\frac{-9-5}{-7-(-1)}[/tex]        *When multiplying or dividing a negative by a negative you get a positive*

Solve:

m= [tex]\frac{-14}{-6}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{-7}{-3}[/tex]--------> [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

Hope this helps!
