Slope of the line through the points (-2, 3) and (0, 6)


















Answer: Slope is




Since this slope doesn't equal 3, this choice isn't the answer

Lets find the slope between the points (1,4) and (3,8)

Slope of the line through the points (1, 4) and (3, 8)
















Answer: Slope is




Since this slope doesn't equal 3, this choice isn't the answer

Lets find the slope between the points (-3,-4) and (0,2)

Solved by pluggable solver: Finding the slope


Slope of the line through the points (-3, -4) and (0, 2)



















Answer: Slope is




Since this slope doesn't equal 3, this choice isn't the answer


Lets find the slope between the points (2,-1) and (-1, -10)

Solved by pluggable solver: Finding the slope


Slope of the line through the points (2, -1) and (-1, -10)



















Answer: Slope is




Since this slope equals 3, this choice is the answer

So the answer is D)
