Answer: A) Yes, they both have a slope of 2/3
=============================================================
Explanation:
The equation y = (2/3)x - 3 has slope 2/3 since it is the coefficient of x
The coefficient is the number to the left of the variable.
-------------------------------------
Now let's pull two points from the table.
Pick any two points you want. I'll pick the last two rows to get the two points (4,2) and (13,8)
Subtract the y values to get 8-2 = 6
Subtract the x values in the same order: 13-4 = 9
Divide the differences:
slope = rise/run
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = 6/9
slope = 2/3
We get the same slope as before. Holly is correct.
