Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the slope of the line, we need to determine the change in y (vertical) over the change in x (horizontal) between any two points on the line. One pair of points that appears to be easily accessible from the graph is (0,1) and (2,9). The change in y is 9-1=8, and the change in x is 2-0=2. Therefore, the slope of the line is 8/2=4. Option A in hexadecimal format is the closest approximation to 4.
