To find the slope of the line passing through the points (0, -7) and (4, -3), we can use the formula:
Slope = (change in y) / (change in x)
Using the coordinates of the two points:
Slope = (-3 - (-7)) / (4 - 0)
= (-3 + 7) / 4
= 4 / 4
= 1
Therefore, the original slope of the line passing through these two points is 1.
The parallel slope is the same as the original slope. So, the parallel slope for this line is also 1.
What is the original slope and parallel slope?
(0, -7), (4, -3)
