Find the slope through p1 (1,-2) and p2(4,-3)

Solved by pluggable solver: Finding the slope

Slope of the line through the points (1, -2) and (4, -3)

Answer: Slope is

Now find the slope through q1 (4,3) and q2 (7,4)

Solved by pluggable solver: Finding the slope

Slope of the line through the points (4, 3) and (7, 4)

Answer: Slope is

Since the slopes are not equal, the slopes are not parallel.
