Line k is shown below.Vai4 321 (2, 1)x-5 -4 -3 -2I NON0 1 2 3 4 5k(-4,-2) 3-5Which ratio represents the slope of a line parallelto line k??221O-221

Answer 1

hello

to solve this problem, we have to use the formula of slope of a line

`\begin{gathered} \text{slope(m)}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ y_2=1 \\ x_2=2 \\ y_1=-2 \\ x_1=-4 \end{gathered}`

substitute the values into the equation (formula)

`m=(1-(-2))/(2-(-4))=(1+3)/(2+4)=(4)/(6)=(2)/(3)`

from the calculations above, the slope of the line is equal to 2/3
