Start at (0,0). To get to the other point, you must move up 8 units and move to the right 6 units.
slope = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x) = 8/6
Or you could use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (8-0)/(6-0)
m = 8/6
Normally I would reduce, but your teacher has decided not to.
8/6 reduces to 4/3 when you divide both parts by 2.
