Answer:
Answer:
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Find value of y if line joining points (3,y)&(2,7) is parallel to line joining points (1,-4)&(0,6)
Two line would be parallel if their slopes are equal
Slope of line = (y2 - y1)/(x2 -x1)
Slope of line joing (1,-4)&(0,6)
= ( 6 -(-4))/(0 - 1)
= -10
Slope of line joing (3,y)&(2,7)
= ( 7 - y)/(2 - 3)
= y - 7
y - 7 = -10
=> y = -3
