Find the slope of the line that goes through the given points I know the formula for this type of problem is the second y coordinate subtracted from the first y coordinate over the second x coordinate subtracted from the first x coordinate but for the numbers given to me for this problem (-9, - 5) and (-7, 5) it says the slope = 5 I am getting 10 over 16. Am I doing something wrong?

You have:
$$
m= \dfrac{5-(-5)}{-7-(-9)}=\dfrac{10}{2} =5
$$
