Answer:

Please check the attached graph.

Explanation:

Note: You did not add the graph; so I am taking a sample graph to clear the concept anyway. Please check the referred graph attached below.

The slope on the graph basically tells us the time rate of change.

  • In other words, it describes the steepness of a straight line.

The slope can also be termed as:

  • Slope = rise / run

From the attached graph, taking twp points

  • (0, 3)
  • (-1, 0)

Finding the slope between (0, 3) and (-1, 0) using the formula


\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-1,\:0\right)


\mathrm{Slope}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)


m=(0-3)/(-1-0)


m=3

Thus, the slope of the given line on the graph = m = 3
