The slope can be said to be the cahnge in the values of y divide by the change in the values of x.

To find the slope, apply the slope formula below:


m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

From the given graph, take the points on the line:

(x1, y1) ==> (10, 80)

(x2, y2) ==> (30, 90)

Input values into the formula and solve for m.

Thus, we have:


\begin{gathered} m=(90-80)/(30-10) \\ \\ m=(10)/(20) \\ \\ m=(1)/(2) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the slope is ½

ANSWER:


(1)/(2)
