Line b passes through points (3, 12) and (8, 6). Line c is parallel to line b. What is the slope of line c?
The slope of line b can be calculated using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the given points (3, 12) and (8, 6) for line b, the slope is:
m = (6 - 12) / (8 - 3)
m = -6 / 5
Since line c is parallel to line b, it will have the same slope.
Therefore, the slope of line c is -6/5.
