Answer

Choice E

Work Step by Step

The graph of the line with a positive slope, such as the given, $m= 3 ,$ is a line that is increasing from left to right. Hence, the possible choices are Choice D and Choice E. Since the graph of the line becomes closer to the x-axis as the value of the slope decreases, then for a slope of $m=3$, the graph is Choice E since Choice D will correspond to item # 59 where $m=\dfrac{1}{3}$.
