Slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)
(there is probably another way to do this, but I will be doing it this way)
Isolate the "y" in the equation
3x + 4y = 12 Subtract 3x on both sides
4y = 12 - 3x Divide 4 on both sides
or
The slope is -3/4
For lines to be parallel, they have to have the SAME slope. The given line's slope is -3/4, so the slope of the parallel line is also 
64 as it’s multiplied by 2 each time
It would just be -14 still
<span>w divided by 7 1/2
Substitute variable for numbers
5 5/6 divided by 7 1/2
Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions
35/6 divided by 15/2
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 15/2 to 2/15
35/6*2/15
Multiply
Final Answer: 70/90</span>
Those are alternate interior angles and are equal. B.5x=80 x=16.
