Slope formula:
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

To find the slope:


(1-0)/(0-(-7)) =(1)/(7)

Hope it helps!

Answer:

Explanation:

Good morning/evening!

The table we have is,


\Large\boxed{\begin{tabular}c  x & y \\ \cline {1-2} -7 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{tabular}}}

This is enough information. Using this we CAN find the slope of the line.

We will utilise the formula,


\Large\boldsymbol{\sf{m=(\triangle y)/(\triangle x)}}

  • Slope = Change in y divided by the change in x

The change in y is 1, and the change in x is 7.

∵, the slope is
\boxed{\rm{1/7}}

done !!
