Answer

The slope of the line is $\frac{6}{5}$.

Work Step by Step

Take first two points from the table. $(x1,y1)=(6,9)$ and $(x2,y2)=(11,15)$. Use slope formula. $\Rightarrow m=\frac{y2−y1}{x2−x1}$ Substitute all the values. $\Rightarrow m=\frac{15−9}{11−6}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow m=\frac{6}{5}$ Hence, the slope of the line is $\frac{6}{5}$.
