Respuesta :

C

1) Let's rewrite the table:

x | y

-1 4

3 10

2) To find out the slope let's plug them into the slope formula:

[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ m=\frac{4-(-1)}{10-3}=\frac{5}{7} \end{gathered}[/tex]

We can analyze Marisol's mistake since Marisol swapped the variables in the formula above.

Hence, the answer is C
