If you mean: 3x+4y = 12 then y = -3/4x+3 whereas -3/4 or -0.75 is the slope and 3 is the y intercept

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line represented by the equation 3x plus 4y equals 12?

4/3 First, get this into slope-intercept form (get y by itself). 3x+4y=12 -> Move 3x to the right by subtracting from both sides. -3x -3x 4y=12-3x -> get y alone by dividing everything by 4. 4y=-3x+12 ÷4 ÷4 ÷4 y=(-3/4)x+3 -> The slope is -3/4. To get the perpendicular line's slope you take the slope (-3/4) and flip it and switch the sign: negative becomes positive, 3/4 becomes 4/3.

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 is the slope of a line perpendicular to line whose equation is y 5 3x plus 8 3?

x - 4y = 3 is the slope of a line perpendicular to line whose equation is y -5 3x plus 8 3.

What is the slope of the line given by the equation y -3x?

If you mean: y = -3x then the slope of the line is -3

What is the answer to y equals 3x plus 3 and y equals 4x plus 5?

y=3x+3 -- This could be the formula for a line, where the slope is 3 and the y intercept is (0,3). In the next line the slope would be 4 and the y-intercept would be 5
