Answer:

-5/9

Explanation:

Note. If the line is parallel, then the slope is shared. If the line is perpendicular (directly opposite), it means to flip the sign as well as the fraction.

The slope of line g is 9/5. This means that the slope of line h, (which is perpendicular to line g), would be the opposite, or -5/9

-5/9 is your answer.
