Slope = (Yb - Ya) / (Xb - Xa)
Slope = (8 - (-5)) / (7 - (-2))
Slope = (8 + 5) / (7 + 2)
Slope = 13/9

So, in conclusion, the slope of this line is: 13/9 which means that for every 13 units you go up, you go 9 units to the right.

Answer:

18 baseball cards
12 football cards

baseball : football = 9 : 6

18 baseball cards
12 football cards

This table came from another question you posted, a question with no content other than the table. The blue numbers are blanks in the original table that have been filled in so as to keep the same 3:2 proportion in each week. They appear to have no bearing on this question.
