Line k has a slope of 2/3. if line m is parallel to line k, then it has a slope of
-2/3, -3/2, 2/3, 3/2
Solution:
Given: Slope of line k = 2/3
Now the line m is parallel to line k.
We know that the slope of parallel lines is equal. m\(_1\) = m\(_2\)
The slope of line m will be equal to the slope of line k. i.e., 2/3
Therefore, the slope of line m will be 2/3.
We can also understand by an example below:
Example:
The slope of line p is 4, lines p and q are parallel. find the slope of line q.
We know that the slope of parallel lines are equal
The slope of line p will be equal to the slope of line q
The slope of line p is 4
Therefore, the slope of line q will be also 4
Line k has a slope of 2/3. if line m is parallel to line k, then it has a slope of
Summary:
If line k has a slope of 2/3 and line m is parallel to line k, then the slope of line m will be equal to line k i.e., 2/3.
