Answer:
A) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1,-7) ⇒ x₁ = -1 & y₁ = -7
(3,9) ⇒ x₂ = 3 & y₂ = 9
We can find the slope by the below mentioned formula,
[tex]\boxed{\bf Slope =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}[/tex]
[tex]\sf = \dfrac{9-(-7)}{3-(-1)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{9+7}{3+1}\\\\\\=\dfrac{16}{4}\\\\\\= 4[/tex]

▸given question
→ find the slope through (-1,-7) and (3,9)
▸ formula
→ [tex]\sf{m=\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}[/tex]
▸ substitute the points
→ [tex]\sf{m=\cfrac{9-(-7)}{3-(-1)}}[/tex]
→ [tex]\sf{m=\cfrac{9+7}{3+1}}[/tex]
→ [tex]\sf{m=\cfrac{16}{4}}[/tex]
→ [tex]\sf{m=4}[/tex]
▸therefore, m = 4.
