For this case we must find the slope of the following equation:


y-4 = \frac {5} {2} (x-2)

By definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:


y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})

Where:


(x_ {0}, y_ {0}): It is a point through which the line passes

m: It's the slope

So, the slope of the given equation is:


m = \frac {5} {2}

Answer:

Option D
