To find the slope of the line through the pair of points, we use the formula for slope which is (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Here, we have two points (1, -19) and (6, 16). Let's denote:
x1 = 1, y1 = -19 (from the first point) and
x2 = 6, y2 = 16 (from the second point).

Substitute these values into the formula:

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (16 - (-19)) / (6 - 1)
slope = (16 + 19) / 5
slope = 35 / 5
slope = 7

So, the slope of the line through the points (1, -19) and (6, 16) is 7.
