Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation: In algebra, we use the word slope to describe how steep a line is and slope can be found using the ratio rise/run between any two points that are on that line.

So for the line you see here, let's use these two points to find its slope.

Let's go from left to right.

To get from the point that has the coordinates (0,1) to (4,2),

we rise 1 unit and run 4 units to the right and we end up the other point.

So the slope of this line is 1/4.
