Answer:

C. [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex](x_1,y_1)=(32,26)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)=(37,28)[/tex].

The slope of line m is given by

[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We plug in the values to get;

[tex]Slope=\frac{28-26}{37-32}[/tex]

[tex]Slope=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

The line parallel to m also have slope, [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
