Question

What is the slope of the line on the graph?

Please help and explain the answer and how you found it, thanks!

Answer 1

the answer is 1/3 (slope is always a fraction ) because to find slope its rise over run and if you start at 4 on the y-axis and you go up one and over 3 to the left you meet your next point

Answer 2

-1/3

Explanation:

To find the slope we need to take two point and find how they change. Lets take -6,6 and 0,4. The change is x is 6. The change in y is -2. The formula for slope is change is y over change in x. This is -2/6. -2/6 can get simplified into -1/3. Your slope is -1/3
