To find the slope of the line, we can use the formula:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
The change in y is the difference between the y-coordinates of the two points: 8 - 7 = 1
The change in x is the difference between the x-coordinates of the two points: 4 - (-4) = 8
Therefore, the slope of the line is 1/8.
A coordinate plane shows four quadrants with both the x-axis and the y-axis ranging from negative 10 to positive 10 in increments of 2. Two points are plotted and joined by a line. The plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis negative 4 comma 7 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 8 right parenthesis. A line connects the two plotted points and extends beyond the points in both directions.
Find the slope of the line given its graph.
