Question

What is the slope of this line?

Answer 1

The slope is 1/4. Hope this helps

Answer 2

slope = $\frac{1}{4}$

to calculate the slope m use the gradient formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (8, 8 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, 5 ) ← 2 poinys on the line

m = $\frac{5-8}{-4-8}$ = $\frac{-3}{-12}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$
