The slope is 2 because it rises 2 up and goes 1 to the right, hence 2/1 = 2

Answer:option 3 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

From the graph given,

y2 = 3

y1 = 1

x2 = 0

x1 = - 1

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

Slope = 2/1 = 2
