Question

Find the slope of a line parallel to y=(2/5)x + (4/5)

Answer 1

Answer:

m=2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the exact same slope.

We have an equation in point slope form.

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope is the number being multiplied by x. In the equation

y=2/5x+4/5

2/5 and x are being multiplied. Therefore, 2/5 is the slope. A line that is parallel will have the same slope of 2/5.

Answer 2

Answer:

So if a line was parallel it would have same slope. You can search up what slope-intercept form means. But if you have an equation like this:

y = mx+b

The slope will be m. Your question is written in the form. 2/5 = m.

The slope is 2/5

The y-intercept is 4/5
