Question

line v has a slope of $\frac{7}{8}$. line w is parallel to line v. what is the slope of line w? simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope property of parallel lines

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

Step2: Identify given slope

Line $v$ has slope $\frac{7}{8}$. Since line $w$ is parallel to line $v$, they have the same slope.

Answer:

$\frac{7}{8}$
