Question

The lines below are parallel if the slope of the solid line is 4,what is the slope of the gas line?

Answer 1

Answer:

We conclude that the parallel lines are equal and the slope of the gas line is:

• m₂ = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the lines are parallel if the slope of both lines is equal.

In other words,

• If m₁ = m₂, then the lines will be parallel.

Now,

Given that the slope of the solid line = m₁ = 4

• As the parallel lines have equal slopes.

Thus,

The slope of gas line = m₂ = 4

as  

m₁ = m₂

Therefore, we conclude that the parallel lines are equal and the slope of the gas line is:

• m₂ = 4
