Answer:

Option B. 1

Explanation:

In the given picture a line is given which passes through (-4, 2) and (3, 9).

We have to find out the slope of the line.

Since slope of a line passing through (x, y) and (x', y') is


m=(y-y')/(x-x')

Now we place the values of x and y in the formula.


m=(9-2)/(3+4)=(7)/(7)=1

Therefore the slope of the line is 1.
