Question

The figure shows a line graph and two shaded triangles that are similar:

Which statement about the slope of the line is true?

Group of answer choices

A. It is fraction 1 over 2 throughout the line.


B. It is 2 throughout the line.


C.The slope from point O to point A is fraction 1 over 2 time the slope of the line from point A to point B.


D.The slope from point O to point A is two times the slope of the line from point A to point B.

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

You can use the formula change in y divided by change in x, so for this the change in y would be 2 and the change in x would be 4. This means the slope is 1/2.

In a line, the slope never changes so it's A.
