Slope of a line passing through $(1,9)$ and $(0,6)$ is $3$

The slope of a line passing through $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is

$(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)$ .

Hence, slope of a line passing through $(1,9)$ and $(0,6)$ is

$(6-9)/(0-1)=(-3)/(-1)=3$

What is the slope of the line passing through the following points: (1,9), (0,6) (1,9), (0,6)?
