Question

Given the following graph what is the slope?

Answer 1

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{2-1}{0-(-4)}$ = $\frac{1}{0+4}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$
