The slope of a line is defined as the

A) change in the value of the variable on the vertical axis divided by the change in the value of the variable on the horizontal axis
B) value of the variable on the horizontal axis divided by the value of the intercept on the vertical axis
C) change in the value of the variable on the horizontal axis divided by the increase in the value of the variable on the vertical axis
D) value of the variable on the vertical axis divided by the value of the variable on the horizontal axis
E) change in the value of the variable on the vertical axis times the increase in the value of the variable on the horizontal axis
