Question

Which is the positive slope m, where m<1

Answer 1

Answer:

Line D

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line passing through $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by,

m = $\frac{y_2,y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope of line A passing through (-6, 3) and (0, 0)

m = $\frac{3-0}{-6-0}=-\frac{1}{2}$

Negative and m < 1

Slope of line B passing through (-2, 4) and (0, 0)

m = $\frac{4-0}{-2-0}=-2$

Negative and m < 1

Slope of line C passing through origin and (2, 5),

m = $\frac{5-0}{2-0}$ = 2.5

Positive and m > 1

Slope of line D passing through origin and (3, 2)

m = $\frac{2-0}{3-0}=\frac{2}{3}$

Positive but m < 1

Therefore, Line D will be the answer.
