The slope is 1/4. To solve, you would use the formula (y2-y1/x2-x1). Using that formula, depending on what you set as x and y, you would get something that simplifies to 1/4. y1, y2, x1, x2 are all determined by the coordinate pairs

Answer: B.
(1)/(4)

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the slope of a line passing through (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-


\text{Slope}=(d-b)/(c-a)

From the graph it can be seen that the line is passing from (-3,-1) and (5,1), then the slope of the given line will be :-


\text{Slope}=(1-(-1))/(5-(-3))\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Slope}=(2)/(8)=(1)/(4)

Hence, the slope of the given line is graph =
(1)/(4)
