Answer 1

Given two points on a line, we can find its slope by using the formula below

`\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1_{}),(x_2,y_2) \\ \Rightarrow\text{slope}\to m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \end{gathered}`

In our case, the line in the image goes through (0,0) and (5,3); therefore,

`\Rightarrow m=(3-0)/(5-0)=(3)/(5)`

Thus, the answer is 3/5
