Answer:

The slope of the line is 3

Explanation:

we know that

The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)


rise=y2-y1


run=x2-x1

therefore

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to


m=(rise)/(run)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

take two points from the graph

(0,-1) and (1,2)


rise=2+1=3


run=1-0=1


m=(3)/(1)=3
