Question

1

Find the slope of a line parallel to the given line.
y = 2x + 4
A-2
B -1/2
c 2
D 1/2

Answer 1

`\textbf{The slope of the parallel line is given by $ 2 $}\\`

Explanation:

`\textup{The slope of any two parallel lines are equal and they only differ in their $y- intercepts$. }\\\textup{Given $y = 2x + 4 $}\\\textup{This is  comparable to $y = mx + c$, where $m$ is the slope of that line.}\\\textup{Therefore, the slope of the given line and any line parallel to it is $ 2$.}`
