Answer:

C

Explanation:

The pair of triangles in option C (image attached below) shows that the slope of line a is the same anywhere on the line.

Let's check it out:

Slope = rise/run

✔️For the first lower triangle:

Rise = 3.5

Run = 4.5

Slope = 3.5/4.5 ≈ 0.8

✔️For the second upper traingle:

Rise = 4

Run = 5

Slope = 4/5 = 0.8

Therefore, it shows that the slope of the line is the same anywhere along the line of the graph.
