To find the slope of a line, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{slope (m)} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \]

where \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) are two points on the line.

If you have the graph, identify two distinct points on the line and plug their coordinates into this formula.

1. **If the line is horizontal (constant y-value)**: The slope is 0.
2. **If the line is vertical (constant x-value)**: The slope is undefined.
3. **For other slopes**: Calculate using the formula.

Since I cannot see the graph you mentioned, you'll want to look for these points and determine the slope accordingly.

If you give me the coordinates of two points from the line, I can help you calculate the slope.
