Question

What is the slope of a line parallel the the line whose equation is x+y=5. Fully reduce your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

m = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of this line.

x+y=5

y= (-1)x+5

Slope (m) = -1 <-- from y = mx+b

A line parallel to the line will have the slope -1.
