Answer:

Explanation:

a. Gradient of A = 7/-7 = -1.

b. For line B, m = 3/1.5 = 2 and c = y-intercept = 3.

c. The line parallel to B will have the same gradient m = 2.

It also passes through (1, -1) so we use the point-slope form of the straight line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Here m = 2 and (x1, y1) = (1, -1) so

y - (-1) = 2(x - 1)

y = 2x - 2 - 1

y = 2x -3.
