Question

I need help finding the slope

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, I chose two points where the line intersected the graph at an exact point.

Points:

(0, -8)

(4, -7)

Slope is the measure of rise over run, so starting at (0, -8) I went up one and to the right 4 times.

To put this as a fraction, we would have: 1/4

The numerator and denominator are positive because we went up and to the right.

Therefore, the slope is 1/4.
