2/5
Rise over run
You are going up 2, and then you are going 5 horizontal wise. The slope is rising, so it is positive, and you don’t have to simplify. Therefore, 2/5.

Use this formula to find slope always


(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

use any two points from ur graph

I picked this (-5,-1) and (0,1)


(1-(-1))/(0-(-5))


(2)/(5)

sorry lol its 2/5
