What is the slope of the line?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


To move from one point to the next point in the list, you should move 9 units horizontally to the right (along x-axis)
and 5 units vertically up (along y-axis).

It repeats for each pair of consecutive points.

Hence, the slope of the line is   .         ANSWER

Solved.
