Dependency: A variable whose value depends on the value assigned to another variable (independent variable).
Correlation: The relationship between two or more variables is considered as correlation.
In statistics, when we talk about dependency, we are referring to any statistical relationship between two random variables or two sets of data. Correlation, on the other hand refers to any of a broad class of statistical relationships involving dependence.
Answer:
Using points ( 2 , - 4) and ( 0 , 2)
Slope = 2+4/0-2 = 6/-2 = - 3
Since the lines are parallel their slope will be the same
So the slope of the line parallel to the one in the picture is - 3
That's option A.
Hope this helps.
