Let's break down the calculations step by step.

### Part A

1. **Calculate the rise from (3, 30) to (12, 120)**:
- Rise = \( y_2 - y_1 = 120 - 30 \)
- Rise = \( 90 \)

2. **Calculate the run from (3, 30) to (12, 120)**:
- Run = \( x_2 - x_1 = 12 - 3 \)
- Run = \( 9 \)

3. **Calculate the slope**:
- Slope = \( \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{90}{9} \)
- Slope = \( 10 \)

### Part B

1. **Calculate the rise from (0, 0) to (6, 60)**:
- Rise = \( y_2 - y_1 = 60 - 0 \)
- Rise = \( 60 \)

2. **Calculate the run from (0, 0) to (6, 60)**:
- Run = \( x_2 - x_1 = 6 - 0 \)
- Run = \( 6 \)

3. **Calculate the slope**:
- Slope = \( \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{60}{6} \)
- Slope = \( 10 \)

### Part C

- The slope from (0, 0) to (6, 60) is **equal to** the slope from (3, 30) to (12, 120).

### Summary of Answers
- **Part A**:
- Rise = \( 90 \)
- Run = \( 9 \)
- Slope = \( 10 \)

- **Part B**:
- Rise = \( 60 \)
- Run = \( 6 \)
- Slope = \( 10 \)

- **Part C**: The slope from (0, 0) to (6, 60) is **equal to** the slope from (3, 30) to (12, 120).
