Answer 1

slope is 4/2 or 2/1

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the slope formula:

`m\text{ = }(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

The points on the graph: (-1, 1) and (1, 5)

`x_1=-1,y_1=1,x_2=1,y_2\text{ = }5`
`\begin{gathered} \text{Slope }=(5-1)/(1-(-1)) \\ m\text{ ultiplication of same sign gives a positive number} \\ \text{slope = }(5-1)/(1+1) \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{slope = 4/2} \\ \text{slope = 2} \end{gathered}`

We are to enter the slope as a farction or decimal

As a fraction, slope is 4/2 or 2/1
