Answer:

2÷5

Explanation:

Slope is given by

m=change in y / change in x

Given in the question, change in y=2

change in x=5

The value of y is along the vertical which is the Y-axis on a Cartesian plane

The value of x is along the horizontal which is the X-axis on a Cartesian plane

Therefore, slope,
m=2÷5
