Answer:

C. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y2}{x2} -\frac{y1}{x1}[/tex]

m = the slope.

Substitute the values into the formula:

[tex]\frac{9}{3} -\frac{-7}{-1} =\frac{?}{?}[/tex]

Solve:

[tex]\frac{9}{3} -\frac{-7}{-1} =\frac{16}{4}[/tex]

Simplify 16/4:

[tex]\frac{16/4}{4/4} =\frac{4}{1}=4[/tex]
