Answer 1

A) -1/2

Explanation:

the slope is defined by the ratio of y/x.

that means that for a change of a certain number of units in x, y changes this number of units.

e.g. a slope of 5/3 means, if x changes by 3 units, y changes by 5.

the graphic shows a line that goes "down" with increasing x.

that means the slope is negative.

that eliminates C and D.

and we see that when x increases by 2 units, y decreases by 1 unit.

that means the slope is -1/2.
