Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The slope of a line is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (Δy/Δx). Without the specific data from the table, the correct answer cannot be determined directly from the question. However, given the options and assuming a standard linear relationship, the slope of 3 suggests a direct increase in y by 3 units for every 1 unit increase in x, which is a common way to interpret slope in a linear equation.
