If one line has a slope of -5/4 what would the slope of a line
parallel to that line?

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines always have equal slopes. Therefore any parallel line to a given line will share the same slope.

-5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope but a different y intercepts, because if you think about parellel lines, they'll never intersect-- if two lines have the same slope, that means they won't be able to intersect. However, if they have the same slope, they would be coinciding (the same). That's why the y intercepts are different.

Since the slope of the first line is -5/4, the slope for the line parallel to it would also be -5/4

hope this helps!

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
