Answer 1

Here we are interested in finding the slope of the line. From the given graph we can see that that the line passes through points (-6,0) and (0,3) . We know that slope can be calculated by ,

`\longrightarrow slope \ (m)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) =\tan\theta =(rise)/(run)`

`\longrightarrow m =(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)\\`

`\longrightarrow m =(0-3)/(-6-0)\\`

`\longrightarrow m =(-3)/(-6)\\`

`\longrightarrow m =(1)/(2)=0.5`

And we are done!
