Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

Answer: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

• Two points on this graph are (40, 80) and (70, 90). These points can be used to find the slope.
• The formula for slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
• Plugging our numbers into the formula:
• (80-90)/(40-70) = (-10)/(-30) = 1/3
