Answer: Choice A. 7/3
===============================================
Explanation:
The two points shown are (0,-5) and (6,9)
Call them (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
So,
- x1 = 0 and y1 = -5 pair up
- x2 = 6 and y2 = 9 pair up
meaning the slope is....
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (9 - (-5))/(6 - 0)
m = (9 + 5)/(6 - 0)
m = 14/6
m = (7*2)/(3*2)
m = 7/3
The positive slope means the line goes uphill as we move from left to right.
Specifically we go up 7 and over to the right 3 each time.
