The correct answer is B.


Step-by-step explanation

We use the formula for finding the slope of a straight line which is given by


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)
to find the slope each table or graph.



From the first table, the slope can be calculated using

(3,-11) \: and \: (6,1)


m = (1 - - 11)/(6 - 3) = 4


From option B, the slope can be calculated using

(8,5) \: and \: (0,3)



m = (5- 3)/(8 - 0) = (1)/(4)

From the third option, we can calculate the slope using

(-5,32) \: and \: (-1,24)


m = (32 - 24)/( - 5 - - 1) = - (3)/(2)


We can calculate the slope of the last option using

(2,0) \: and \: (3,4)

m = (4 - 0)/(3 - 2) = 4


Therefore the correct answer is B.
