Answer:

A

Explanation:

Givens

y2 = 15

y1 = 0

x2 = 3

x1 = 0

Equation

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Solution

The question is a bit unfair. It looks like you should be answering one. It's not true. What makes it not so is that the axis (x and y) have different intervals.

Substitute the givens into the equation

slope = (15 - 0) / (3 - 0)

slope = 15 / 3

slope = 5

Answer Slope = 5 or A
