Answer:
Slope, m = 1/4 = 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope,m of a line on a graph is derived from the formula,
Slope, m = change in value of y ( on the vertical axis) divided by change in the value of x ( on the horizontal axis)
change in value of y = final value of y (y2) - initial value of y (y1)
change in value of x = final value of x (x2) - initial value of x (x1)
From the graph, we will pick corresponding points.
Final value of y, y2 = 6
Initial value of y, y2 = 5
Final value of x, x2 = 0
Initial value of x, x2 = -4
Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
= (6 - 5)/0 - - 4 = 1 / 4
= 0.25
