Answer:

m=3/4

Explanation:

First, let us remind ourselves of the slope formula: m=rise/run=(
y_(2)-
y_(1))/(
x_(2)-
x_(1))

Let's pick two points from the graph to work with. Let's do (3,-6) and (-1,-9).

And let 3=
x_(1), -6=
y_(1), -1=
x_(2), -9=
y_(2).

1. Substitute the values into the slope formula: [-9-(-6)]/(-1-3)

2. simplify the expression: [-9-(-6)]/(-1-3)=(-9+6)/-4=-3/-4=3/4

3. As a result, the slope of the line is 3/4
