Gabby draws a line segment to connect points (2,1) and (7,4). She draws a second lien segment that is parallel to the first one by connecting the points at (2,3) and (7,6). If she wants to draw a third line segment parallel to the ones she has already drawn, what ordered pairs could she use?

Answer:

(2,5) and (7,8)

Explanation:

Gabby has increased the y-coordinates by 2 units to get her first parallel line. She can do the same thing again to get the second parallel line.

(2, 3+2) = (2, 5)

(7, 6+2) = (7, 8)
