Answer:

slope
=(y_(2) -y_(1) )/(x_2-x_1)

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a graph in general is the following

slope
=(y_(2) -y_(1) )/(x_2-x_1) (1)

1) Pick two points on the graph

2) The coordinate of the first point is
(x_1,y_1), while the second point is
(x_2,y_2).

3) Substitute with the coordinate values in equation (1) to get the slope
