What is the slope of the line shown below (3,-2) (2,4)?
A. -2
B. -1/2
C. 1/2
D. 2

Answer:
D. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
rise / run = slope
rise = 2
run = 1
2/1 = 2
slope = 2
Answer:
2 (Answer D)
Step-by-step explanation:
The green line has a positive slope, so we can immediately reject Answers A and B.
A line with a slope of +2 rises steeply as we move from left to right, whereas a line with slope +1/2 rises much less steeply. Also, it's quite clear, visually, that the slope of the given line is greater than 1. Thus, the slope of the given line is +2 (Answer D).
