Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you have y=x+20 for example, the slope is 1 and any parallel line has slope 1 also. I think your equation is x=y+20 but since the+ and - don't show up i am not sure If it is we can rewrite it as -y=-x+20 or y=x-20 and slope is still 1 so any parallel line has slope 1.

What is the slope of all lines parallel to the x-axis?
the x-axis is the horizontal line which means the slope is 0. any line parallel also has a slope of zero
When the absolute value of the slope gets smaller the graph of a line gets what?
When the slope of a line reaches zero it then will be parallel to the x or y axes depending if its a positive or a negative slope.
How do you find the angle of a slope?
its the tangent of the angle the slope makes with the x-axis
What is an equation in slope intercept form or point slope form that passes through the given point -7 3 and is parallel to the given line x equals 4?
The equation is x = -7.
How do you find slope intercept form when given coordinates?
Use: (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) to find the slope. Use: y -y1 = m(x -x1) to find the slope intercept equation whereas m is the slope.
