Answer:

First Graph: 1

Second Graph: 1/2

Explanation:

Rise over run

Look at where the line intersects with the other line perfectly and find the two closest times when that happens, then go up and over and count it.

So for the first one it is: up 1 over 1. That as a fraction is, 1/1 and that equals 1. So the slope is 1.

For the second one it is up 1 over 2. That as a fraction is 1/2. So the slope is 1/2.

Hope this helps :)
