Question

Find the slope of a line parallel to the line that crosses (1,3) and the y-intercept is (0,-4), m =?

Answer 1

The slope is `7`.

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so we can use the slope formula here with the given points:

`\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}`

`\implies\frac{-4-3}{0-1}`

`\implies \frac{-7}{-1}`

`\implies7`
