Answer:

Slope =
(1)/(2)

Explanation:

Slope of a graph =
(rise)/(run)


Steps to follow:

1. Select two points along this linear graph by reading them:

For example (0, 3) and (8, 7)


2. Draw a vertical line from Point (8, 3) to Point (8, 7). This line is considered as the rise


3. Draw a horizontal line connecting (0, 3) with (8, 3). This line represents the run


4. Substitute the x and y coordinates of the two points mentioned in Step 1 in the formula below:

Slope =
(y_(2) - y_(1))/(x_(2) -x_(1))

=
(7 - 3)/(8 - 0)

=
(4)/(8)

Divide the numerator and denominator by the Highest Common Factor ‘4’ to simplify the fraction:

=
(1)/(2)
