Answer:

Find the slope from a graph

Locate two points on the line whose coordinates are integers.

Starting with the point on the left, sketch a right triangle, going from the first point to the second point.

Count the rise and the run on the legs of the triangle.

Take the ratio of rise over run to find the slope. m = rise / run.
