The slope of any line parallel to this line is the same as the slope of the line itself, by the definition of "parallel" 7x + 9y = 6 can be rewritten as y =(6 - 7x)/9. To find the slope of such a line, select two distinct values of x denoted x1 and x2, then calculate the corresponding values y1 and y2. The slope will then be equal to (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). For example, if x1 is zero, y1 = 6/9 = 2/3. If x2 is one, y2 = -(1/9). The slope is therefore: (- 1/9 - 2/3)/(1 - 0) = - (7/9).

What is the slope of any line parallel to the line 9x plus 4y equals 7?
-9/4 or -2.25
Find the slope of a line parallel to 3x plus 5y equals 15?
Get in slope intercept form. 3X + 5Y = 15 5Y = -3X + 15 Y = -3/5X + 3 -3/5 is the slope of this line and the line parallel to this line
What happens when y equals x is changed to y equals x plus 2?
The whole line 'shifts up' by two units, and is parallel to the original line (same slope)
What equation represents a line that is parallel to the line reprensented by the equation y equals -2 plus 5?
I assume the question should be y = -2x + 5? The equation of a line that is parallel to that line is any line that begins 7 = -2x ... after the -2x any number may be added or subtracted. Parallel lines have the same slope. In the original equation, the slope is -2.
Find the slope of the line perpendicular to the line y equals 2x plus 1?
The slope of the perpendicular is -(1/2) .
What is the slope of a line that runs parallel to y equals -x plus 7?
The slope is -1 .

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation 8x plus 2y equals 4?
-4
What is a parallel to y equals -5x plus 4?
If it is parallel, it must have the same slope of the original line which is -5.
What does the slope of a line parallel to x plus y equals 3 equal?
It equals the slope of the line y = -x. That's a pretty darn strong hint right there is what that is.
What is the slope of any line parallel to the line 9x plus 4y equals 7?
-9/4 or -2.25
Find the slope of a parellel to the graph of y equals 4x plus 2?
The graph of [ y = 4x + 2 ] is a straight line with a slope of 4.Any line with a slope of 4 is parallel to that one, and any line parallel to that one has a slope of 4.
What is the slope of a line parallel to 4x plus 2y equals 5?
Y = -2x + 5 so the slope of this equation, along with the slopes of parallel equations, is -2
What is the slope of a line parallel to the line 2x plus 4y equals 8?
Minus one half, (-1/2).
Find the slope of a line parallel to 3x plus 5y equals 15?
Get in slope intercept form. 3X + 5Y = 15 5Y = -3X + 15 Y = -3/5X + 3 -3/5 is the slope of this line and the line parallel to this line
Find the slope of a line parallel 3x plus 5y equals 5?
