Answer: B

Explanation:

To find r, we need to use the formula to find slope. The formula is
m=(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2) -x_(1) ). Since we are given the coordinates and slope, we can plug them into the formula and solve for r.


(2)/(3) =(3-5 )/(r-4) [multiply both sides by r-4]


(2r-8)/(3)=3-5 [subtract]


(2r-8)/(3)=-2 [multiply both sides by 3]


2r-8=-6 [add both sides by 8]


2r=2 [divide both sides by 2]


r=1

Now that we found that r=1, we know that the answer is B.
