Answer:
The slope of this graph is 3.

Process:
Since slope can be described as rise over run, if you were to start at point (0,0), then it can be seen that the next point is 3 points up, 1 point over. Hence, the slope is 3/1, or simply 3.

There is also two equations that can be used if you need them. Hope this helps!

Answer: 3

Explanation:

The slope of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-


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

In the given graph , the line is passing through (0,0) and (1,3) .\

Then the slope of line passing through (0,0) and (1,3) will be :-


\text{Slope}=(3-0)/(1-0)\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Slope}=3

Hence, the slope of the given line= 3
