Answer:
C. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for slope is given as [tex] m = {y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]
The coordinates of any two points can be used in this formula. Let's use, (1, 5) and (2, 8).
Let,
[tex] (1, 5) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]
[tex] (2, 8) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]
Plug the values into the formula:
[tex] m = {8 - 5}{2 - 1} [/tex]
[tex] m = {3}{1} [/tex]
[tex] m = 3 [/tex]
