fnd the slope (rate of change) of the line.
A line is graphed on a coordinate plane. The line passes through the points left parenthesis negative 5 comma 2 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 0 comma 3 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 5 comma 4 right parenthesis.

The slope (rate of change) of the line can be found using the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
For the given coordinates, we can choose two points to calculate the slope. Let's use the points (-5, 2) and (0, 3):
slope = (3 - 2) / (0 - (-5))
slope = 1 / 5
Therefore, the slope (rate of change) of the line is one-fifth.
