Question

What is the slope of this line?

Answer 1

Slope of the given line = 1/4

Explanation:

The two points on the line are (-4,5) and (0,6)

`slope \: of \: the \: line \: = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)`

Let us consider x1 = 0 and y1= 6

x2= -4 and y2 = 5

`slope = (5 - 6)/( - 4 - 0) = ( - 1)/( -4) = (1)/(4)`

Answer 2

1/4

Explanation:

You can see that for every four units that the line moves to the right, it moves up by 1. This means that it has a slope of 1/4. Hope this helps!
