Math Problem Statement
answer
Enter the slope of the line as a reduced fraction. If the slope is undefined, write undefined.
Solution
To find the slope of the line from the graph, we use the formula for the slope of a line between two points, which is:
By inspecting the graph, we can choose two points that the red line passes through clearly. Two points that stand out are and .
Now, applying these points to the slope formula:
So, the slope of the line is .
