Question

What is the slope of a line that passes through the point (−1, 1) and is parallel to a line that passes through (3, 6) and (1, −2)?

Answer 1

you use mx+b right .

Answer 2

or the x1-x2/y1-y2 ? am horrible at math

Answer 3

you don't need to give me the work just the answer

Answer 4

First find the slope of the line that passes through (3,6) and (1,-2).
y1-y2 / x2-x1
6-(-2) / (3-1)
8/2
4
So the slope is 4. Parallel lines have the same slope, so the answer is 4.

Answer 5

Note that you don't need the first part (-1,1)
