Segment xy represents the path of an airplane that passes through the coordinates (2,1)and (4,5). What is the slope of a line that represents the path of another airplane that is traveling parallel to the first airplane?



Answer :

Steps:
1. Do the slope formula
Y2-Y1
--------
X2-X1
2.
5-1
------
4-2
3.
5-1=4
4-2=2
4. 4/2=2 so your slope is 2. When a line is parallel that means it has the same slope so, the slope is 2
5. Your answer is 2
