Question

Lines r and s are parallel. If the slope of line r is 2/5 , what is the slope of line s?

Answer 1

Lines r and s are parallel; so they have same slope

If the slope of line r is 2/5 then slope of line s would be 2/5

answer: 2/5

Answer 2

Answer:

Slope of line s is $\frac{2}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given line r is parallel to line s .Parallel lines do not meet if produced on either side.

Slope of parallel lines are same .

In the given figure line r is having a slope of $\frac{2}{5}$

Line s is parallel to line r ( given)

Hence line s will have the same slope as line r.

Slope of line s= slope of line r=$\frac{2}{5}$
