Given:

A line has a gradient of -2

A line that is parallel to this will have a gradient of ..... .

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

Gradient of a line is also known as slope of the line.

We know that the slopes of the parallel lines are equal.

A line has a gradient of -2. So, the slopes of all the lines which are parallel to this line have a gradient of -2.

Therefore, the missing value is -2.
