1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the slope of a line passing through the points (2,3)(-2, -3) and (1,6)(-1, 6).

2. Solution Steps

The formula for the slope mm of a line passing through two points (x1,y1)(x_1, y_1) and (x2,y2)(x_2, y_2) is:
m=y2y1x2x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
Given points are (x1,y1)=(2,3)(x_1, y_1) = (-2, -3) and (x2,y2)=(1,6)(x_2, y_2) = (-1, 6).
Substitute the given values into the formula:
m=6(3)1(2)m = \frac{6 - (-3)}{-1 - (-2)}
m=6+31+2m = \frac{6 + 3}{-1 + 2}
m=91m = \frac{9}{1}
m=9m = 9

3. Final Answer

The slope of the line is 9.
