Question

Look at this graph:

Answer 1

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

you rise 1 and you go forward 4 wich equals 1/4

Answer 2

Answer:

The Slope is $\frac{1}{4}$

Explanation:

Notice that both the points, $(-7,-6)$ and $(-3,-5)$, are on the line. So we can use those points to calculate the slope. Recall that that slope of the line $m$ can be calculated by $\frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$ if we have the points, $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$.

Calculating for the slope of the line:

Given

$(-7,-6)$

$(-3,-5)$

$m = \frac{-5 -(-6)}{-3 -(-7)} \\ m = \frac{-5 +6}{-3 +7} \\ m = \frac{1}{4}$
