To determine the slope of the line, we use the formula:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

Using the coordinates in the table, we can calculate the slope as follows:

For points (-2,1) and (2,2):
(change in y) = 2 - 1 = 1
(change in x) = 2 - (-2) = 4

slope = 1/4

Therefore, the slope of the line is 1/4.
