Solution

Since they are collinear, that means they are on the straight line and thus have the same slope.

From the straight line graph, the line has a positive slope

Thus, from the graph


\begin{gathered} SlopeOfDC=\frac{\text{change in y}}{change\text{ in x}} \\ SlopeOfDC=(5)/(1) \\ SlopeOfDC=5 \end{gathered}

Therefore,


SlopeOfDC=5
