Answer: Answer choice D

Step-by-step explanation: The linear function is y = -5/3 + 5, which means that the slope is 5/3. The fact that the slope is ascending to the left also eliminates the first two choices.

Answer:

D is the answer I think.

Explanation:

Hello there! :)

To find the slope of a line, we must divide the Rise over the Run:


Slope=(Rise)/(Run)

The Rise here is -5; the Run is 3.

We calculate that by looking at the graph.

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
