Question

A line contains the points (3,2) and (-1,-6) what is the slope of a line that is parallel to this line

A.) 2
B.) 1/2
C.)-2
D.)-1/2

Answer 1

(3,2) and (-1,-6)

slope = (2 + 6)/(3 + 1) = 8/4 = 2

parallel lines, slope is the same so the slope of a line that is parallel to this line is also 2

Answer

A.) 2
