Question

What is the slope of a line that passes through the point (-1, 1) and is parallel to a line that passes through (4, 6) and (-1, -4)?

Answer 1

First get the slope if the second Line by using the rule :
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
then use the result slope with the Point (-1,1) to get the equation of the first line using the same Law .

Answer 2

of*

Answer 3

hmm,Why you don't work on it and get the answer ?
Just Give a Try !

Answer 4

First you must calculate the slope of the line passing through points (4,6) and (-1,-4) using the formula m=\[Deltay \div Deltax\]

Answer 5

since you found the slope value for one of the lines, and you know that both lines are parallel, you have the slope value for both lines.
