Question

what is the slope of the line? enter your answer, in simplest form, in the box

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points on the line

Let's take two points \((- 8,0)\) and \((0,6)\) from the graph.

Step2: Use the slope - formula

The slope formula is \(m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\). Here, \(x_1=-8,y_1 = 0,x_2 = 0,y_2=6\). Then \(m=\frac{6 - 0}{0-(-8)}=\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}\).

Answer:

\(\frac{3}{4}\)
