答案 A

解析 You can begin by sketching the line in the xy-plane and labeling the points(5, 4)and(2, -1)on the line, as shown below.

From the figure, you can see that the line through the two points slants upward and to the right. So the slope of the line is greater than 0; that is, Quantity A is greater than Quantity B. The correct answer is Choice A.(Note that it is not necessary to calculate the slope of the line.)
This explanation uses the following strategy.
