2
a
m = 2
Ob
m = -2/3
c
m = 0

Answer 1

Option e: 2/3 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The slope of a line is given by:

`m = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Two-points on line are needed to calculate slope of a line. In the attached diagram, two points are highlighted which are located on line C.

The two points are:

(x1,y1) = (9,4)

(x2,y2) = (3,0)

Putting the values in the formula

`m = (0-4)/(3-9)\\=(-4)/(-6)\\=(2)/(3)`

The slope of line C is: 2/3

Hence,

Option e: 2/3 is the correct answer.
