The slope of the line is 1/2.

Explanation:

See any straight line can be depicted by a general formula
y=mx+c
Where m=slope of line
Since your given question is already in this format, comparing we get m=1/2.

Hope it helps!!

Slope is 1/2
See explanation below

Explanation:

The general equation of a line is y=ax+b

where a is the slope and b is y-intercept. The value of a is given by a=tantheta where theta is the angle formed by line and x-axis

In our case a=1/2 is the slope, and the angle theta=arctan(1/2), is 26º 33´ 54´´
