Question

Determine whether the lines are parallel. Use slope to explain your answer. Use the graph shown below

(graph)

The slope is of the red line is __

The slope is of the blue line is __

The lines do/do not have the same slope so they are/are not parallel.

Answer 1

the slope of the red line is 1 and the slope of the blue line is also 1. you figure it out by finding the rise/run. so start at a point and go up and over to find the slope. for both it is 1/1, up one over one. they are parallel.
