Question

Find the slope of the line-4-1/41/44

Answer 1

Find 2 "easy" points on the graph, and identify their coordinates.  One such point would be (-4,1) and another would be (4,2).

run = 8 (from -4 to +4)
rise = 2 (from 0 to 2)

              rise           2
slope = ------- = -------- = 1/4                   y-intercept is (0,1)
               run          8

equation of this line is   thus   y = mx + b, or   y = (1/4)x + 1  (answer)
