Line q passes through points (3, 6) and (9, 1). Line r is parallel to line q. What is the slope of line r?

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

1 answer

First, let's find the slope of line q using the two given points.

Slope of a line = (change in y)/(change in x)

Slope of line q = (1-6)/(9-3) = -5/6

Since line r is parallel to line q, it will have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of line r is -5/6.
