Question

Line M passes through points (4,2) and (-7,1). What is the slope of a line N that is parallel to line M?

a 11
b -1/11
c 1/11

my answer was 1/11 but im not sure

Answer 1

do you know the slope formula , given 2 points?

for the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

Answer 2

so plug in the values for (4,2) and (-7,1) to find the slope

Answer 3

(2-1) / (4 - (-7)) = ?

Answer 4

11 ? @cwrw238

Answer 5

no - look again
