2. Parallel lines have the same slope.
You are missing a - or + sign. The answer is 5/2 though. :)
1) Solve the given equation for "y". The resulting equation will be in slope-intercept form, so you can immediately read off its slope. 2) Any line parallel to that line will have the same slope.
The slope of a line parallel to -8x + y = 2 is -8.
If it's parallel then it has the same slope, so -2/3. The formula for both of these lines is -2/3x + c.
If you mean: 4x-2y = -3 then the slope of the line parallel to it will also have a slope of 2 but with a different y intercept
The slope is 5 over 2, if they're paralell they have the same slope
For two lines to be parallel they must have the same slope. A line parallel to a line with slope -2 would have a slope of -2.
if the slope of a line is 2/3, then the slope of a parallel line would be 2/3.
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you have a line with slope = 2, for example, and another line is parallel to the first line, it will also have slope = 2.

It will have the same slope of -2 but the y intercept of the line will be different
The slope of a line parallel to -8x + y = 2 is -8.

-2. Slopes of parallel lines are the same. If the lines are different it is the intercedpt that is different.

The slope of line AB will be 1/2. Two parallel lines will always have the same slope, so if you know the slope of one line that is parallel to another, you know the other line's slope.
