C. 1/5

=========

Take any two points on the line, let them be (0, 3) and (5, 4).

Use the slope formula:

  • [tex]m = \cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Substitute the coordinates of the two points into formula:

  • [tex]m = \cfrac{4-3}{5-0}=\cfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

The slope is 1/5, which is option C.
