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 
Answer:
20% discount
Step-by-step explanation:
300 - 240 = 60
60 / 300 = 0.20
0.20 × 100 = 20
5 + x - 6 = 4
x= 5
5 plus 5 equals 10 and 10 minus 6 is equal to 4.

Answer:
x = 22.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angle at E is (180 -4x), the supplement of the exterior angle there, 4x. The sum of angles 2x and (180-4x) will be equal to 6x, because alternate interior angles at transversal BE are congruent:
2x +(180 -4x) = 6x
180 = 8x . . . . . . . add 2x and simplify
22.5 = x . . . . . . . divide by 8
The value of x is 22.5°.
