24. Lines p and n lie in the standard (x, y) coordinate plane. An equation for line p is y = 0.12x + 3,000. The slope of line n is 0.1 greater than the slope of line p. What is the slope of line n ?

Answer and Explanation

Your Answer is

Correct Answer is H

Explanation

The slope of a linear equation on the Cartesian coordinate system is the coefficient in front of x when y is on one side alone. So the slope of p is 0.12. The slope of n is 0.1 greater, so 0.22. Therefore choose H.
