Answer:
The slope is 5/4 or 1 1/4
Explanation:
slope: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Points given: (4,0), (0,-5)
(-5-0)/(0-4) = -5/-4 = 1 1/4
5/4
just take two points on the line
lets say (0, -5) and (4, 0)
take the slope:
(0-(-5))/(4-0) = 5/4
you could also just look at the graph and see that to get from (0, -5) to (4, 0), you move up 5 (rise), and move right 4 (run)
