We need to draw a line segment with a slope of 5/7
There are infinity number of line segments with the same slope
So, we will let two points to draw the line segment
The rule to choose the points must follow the relation between x and y
which is the equation of the line:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope
So,
The constant b here can be chosen any number
let b = 1
so,
when x = 0 , y = 1
when x = 7 , y = 6
the points are ( 0 , 1 ) and ( 7 , 6 )
the line segment will be as shown in the following image:
A lot of parallel lines can be drawn to the shown line segment.
