Lines p and n lie in the standard (x,y) coordinate plane.

An equation for line p is y = 0.12x + 3,000. The slope

of line n is 0.1 greater than the slope of line p. What is

the slope of line n ?

F. 0.012

G. 0.02

H. 0.22

J. 1.2

K. 300

\(the \ general \ equation \ of \ straight \ line \ is: \ \ y=mx+c \\ " m "\ is \ the \ slope \ of \ line \\ \\ m=0.12 \\ \\ the \ slope \ of \ line \ " n " \ is \ 0.1 \ greater \ than \ line \ p \\ \\ therefore, \ slope \ of \ line \: \\ \\ n=0.12+0.1=0.22 \\ \\Answer : \ H. \ \ \ 0.22\)
