    -15/7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let B (x1, y1) be on vertical (y-axis) then B = (0, 15) and

    A (x2, y2) be on horizontal (x-axis) then A = (7, 0).

    Now, slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

    then slope = (0 - 15) / (7 - 0)

    => slope = (-15) / 7

    slope of the budget = - 15/7
