Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 1) ← 2 points on the line

m = [tex]\frac{5-(-3)}{1-(-1)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5+3}{1+1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex] = 4 → C
