Answer:

C) 3

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines never touch, they are the same slope with different y-intercepts.

Right here the slope is 3, which means the slope is going to be 3

As a rule, parallel lines will always have the same slope.

The || symbol represents "parallel".

So if the slope of a line is parallel to this graph, the line

must have a slope of 3 since this line has a slope of 3.

As a quick review, remember that slope describes how steep a line is.

It can be found using the ratio rise/run between

any two points that are on that line.
