Question

Line q passes through points (1, 1) and (8, 3). Line r is parallel to line q. What is the slope of line r?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{2}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the of the line q then

$a=\frac{3-1}{8-1} = \frac{2}{7}$

since, two parallel lines always have the same slope then

the slope of line r is 2/7.
