A. –two-thirds; Four points are graphed on a coordinate plane. A line connects the four points and continues on in both directions.The points graphed on the coordinate plane are left-parenthesis negative 5 comma 0 right-parenthesis, left-parenthesis negative 2 comma 2 right-parenthesis, left-parenthesis 1 comma 4 right-parenthesis, and left-parenthesis 4 comma 6 right-parenthesis.
