The slope of the line through the given points can be found using the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Substituting the given coordinates:
slope = (-2 - 0) / (2 - 12) = -2 / -10 = 1/5
So, the slope of the line is 1/5.
The correct choice is:
A. The slope of the line is 1/5
Using the slope formula, find the slope of the line through the given points.
