Answer:
1/3
Explanation:
We are given to find the slope of the line shown on the graph.
We note that
the line on the graph passes through the points (3, -4) and (6, -3).
The slope of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by
m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.m=
c−a
d−b
.
Therefore, the slope of the given line is
\begin{lgathered}m=\dfrac{-3-(-4)}{6-3}\\\\\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{-3+4}{3}\\\\\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{1}{3}.\end{lgathered}
m=
6−3
−3−(−4)
⇒m=
3
−3+4
⇒m=
3
1
.
Thus, the required slope of the line is \dfrac{1}{3}.
