Question

estimate the slope of the line from its graph. express numbers as integers or simplified fractions. select \undefined\ if applicable.

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points

Let's take two points on the line, say $(-4, 3)$ and $(4, 1)$.

Step2: Apply slope formula

The slope formula is $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$. Here, $x_1=-4,y_1 = 3,x_2=4,y_2 = 1$. So $m=\frac{1 - 3}{4-(-4)}=\frac{-2}{8}=-\frac{1}{4}$.

Answer:

$-\frac{1}{4}$
