Find the slope of a line that is parallel to the line containing the points (3,4) and (2,6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first of all, you would have to know that parallel lines have the same slope...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that means that the slope of the parallel line would be the same as the slope of the line whose points you are given....so to find the slope given \[(x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)\] \[m=\frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1}\] m is the slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Delta Y/Delta X is the slope, so 2/1 is the slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For some reason I derped for a sec and thought it was 1/2...
