Polygon MNOPQ is dilated by a scale factor of 0.8 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image M′N′O′P′Q′. The coordinates of point M are (2, 4), and the coordinates of point N are (3, 5)

calculate the slope of MN:
= (5 - 4) / (3 - 2)
= 1
Dilation does not affect the slope of a line; the slope of M'N' is 1.
