Question

The lines graphed below are parallel. The slope of the red line is -4/3 what is the slope of the green line

Answer 1

If the lines are parallel, the slope of the green line should be the same as the red line. The slope of the green lines is -4/3.

If you want it in slope-intercept form, it is y = -4/3x + 4 (green line)

Answer 2

The correct option is C.

Explanation:

It is given that the lines graphed below are parallel.

We know that if two line having slopes m₁ and m₂ are parallel, then

`m_1=m_2`

In other words, the slopes of two parallel lines are same.

The slope of the red line is -4/3 and it is parallel to the green line. It means the slope of red and green line are same.

Slope of green line = Slope of red line

Slope of green line =
`-(4)/(3)`

The slope of green line is -4/3 , therefore the correct option is C.
