    The slope of line h is - 9/7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    mathematically, for two lines that are perpendicular to each other, the product of their slopes is equal to - 1

    say we have two lines l1 and l2, the product of their slopes m1 and m2 is - 1

    Mathematically;

    m1 * m2 = - 1

    now, m1 here is 7/9, we now proceed to calculate m2

    7/9 * m2 = - 1

    7m2/9 = - 1

    7m2 = - 9

    m2 = - 9/7
