Hint (a):

Slope can be defined as the change in y over the change in x.

Step 1(a):

Pick two whole-number points on the line.

Step 2(a):

The coordinates for these two points are (10, 6) and
(5, 3). Now count the change in y and the change in x.

Answer (a):

$\frac{3}{5}$

Step 1(b):

Pick two points on the line.

Step 2(b):

These coordinates are (5, 6) and (0, 0).
Find the slope. See part (a) for help.

Hint (b):
