Answer:


c. 1/5

Explanation:

You have the points (-5, 0) and (0, 1).

To find the slope, b, of the original line, you can use the formula
(y_(1)-y_2) /(x_1-x_2).


b = (0-1)/(-5-0) = -1/-5 = 1/5.

The slope of a line parallel to the original line would have the same slope as the original line, therefore
1/5.
