To find the slope of the line you have to do
(rise)/(run) or in other words
(vertical)/(horizontal)

The image shown is the drawing of how I find this. It means that the rise is 3 and the run is 1

Plug those into the equation
(rise)/(run) then you get:


(3)/(1)

This can then be reduced to:

3

3 is the slope of this graph

Hope this helped!

Answer:

3

Explanation:

The slope is found by the change in the y-axis divided by the change in the x-axis.

We can look at two coordinates on the line to figure that out.

We can see (-3, -3) and (-2, 0).

The change in y is +3 and the change in x is +1.

3/1 = 3
