So you correctly wrote that the slope is represented by Δy/Δx. The Greek capital letter delta means "change in," so we are looking at the change in y divided by the change in x. You might also hear this called "rise over run," because change in y is the vertical change (rise) and change in x is the horizontal change (run).

Now, to find the change in y and x, we need to take two points, (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2). We can then find the slope, m, as below:

m= \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

So, as we're asked to state the slope and the behavior of the graph. Generally, if you see that as x increases, y increases, then the slope is positive. If y decreases, then the slope is negative. If y stays the same (constant), then the slope is zero. If x is constant, then the slope is undefined. Unfortunately, this worksheet also asks us to calculate the slope. So the equation above comes in handy!

1) let's take x = -1, y = -5 and x = 0, y = 3. We can write (x_1,y_1)=(-1,-5) and (x_2, y_2)=(0,3) (we can choose either point to be (x_1,y_1) so long as we're consistent.

m= \dfrac{3+5}{1}=8

This is a positive (+) change.

2) 

m= \dfrac{-4+1}{2} =  \dfrac{-3}{2}

Negative (–).

3) 

m= \dfrac{-9+4}{-9+6}= \dfrac{-5}{-3}= \dfrac{5}{3}

Positive (+).

4)

m= \dfrac{8-3}{-1+5}= \dfrac{5}{4}

Positive (+).

5)

m= \dfrac{4-5}{2+2}= \dfrac{-1}{4}

Negative (–).
