In the xy-plane, line l passes through the points (a, 0) and (0, 2a), where a > 1. What is the slope of line l?
(A) -2
(B) -0.5
(C) 2
(D) -2a
(E) 2a
答案:A
解析:
Explanation
Choice (A) is correct. Given two points on a line, the slope of the line can be found by dividing the change in the y-coordinates between the points by the corresponding change in the x-coordinates. Hence, since line l passes through the points (a, 0) and (0, 2a), its slope is
