Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:


First we must change these numbers to improper fractions:


So then we set it up:
÷ 
When we divide fractions like this, we must flip the second fraction and change the sign from division to multiplication like so:

Then we solve:

Then if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 9, we get:
or, in mixed-number form,
.
The slope of y= 1/2x-7 is always positive because since the slope of this equation is “1/2”, 1/2 is always positive.
