      5


B(1
      3

C(3


D(5

Answer 1

I am pretty sure it is, C. 3 let me know i i am right or wrong

Answer 2

Answer: The correct option is

(B)
`(1)/(3).`

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the slope of the line shown on the graph.

We note that

the line on the graph passes through the points (3, -4) and (6, -3).

The slope of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

`m=(d-b)/(c-a).`

Therefore, the slope of the given line is

`m=(-3-(-4))/(6-3)\\\\\\\Rightarrow m=(-3+4)/(3)\\\\\\\Rightarrow m=(1)/(3).`

Thus, the required slope of the line is
`(1)/(3).`

Option (B) is CORRECT.
