Question

please help me find the slope of the line graphed below ! (will mark brainliest) and spammers will be reported.

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = $\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two points on the graph: (-1, 2) (-5, -3)

Let (x1, y1) = (-1, 2)

(x2, y2) = (-5, -3)

We can use the following slope formula:

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

Substitute the values into the slope formula:

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{-3 - 2}{-5 - (-1)} = \frac{-5}{- 5 + 1} = \frac{-5}{-4} = \frac{5}{4}$

Therefore, the slope of the line is:  $\frac{5}{4}$
