Answer: A. -1/11

Step-by-step explanation: If the green line has a slope of -1/11 and it is parallel to the red line, then the red line must also have a slope of -1/11. Therefore, the answer is A. -1/11.

The answer is:

A. -1/11

Work/explanation:

If two lines are parallel, their slopes are equal. So we immediately deduce that:


  • \textsf{Slope of the green line = slope of the red line}

Since the slope of the green line is -1/11, the following is true:


\textsf{-1/11 = Slope of the red line}

Clearly, the slope of the red line is -1/11.

Hence, option A is correct.
