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 the slope when given two points?
Points: (x, y) and (x2, y2) Slope = y2-y divided by x2-x
What does the slope of a parallel line tell you?
Well parallel lines have the same slopes....if you find the slope of a parallel that it the slope of the other line.....usaully you put this slope into Point-Slope Formula (y-1)= m(x-1) + 1 to find the answer as of Y=
If a line plotted on a graph is horizontal what's the slope?
It has no slope and is parallel to the x axis
Find the slope of a line parallel to x equals -4?
the slope is infinite because you have a vertical line. To find a parallel line, the formula would be "x= any number" because that would also give you a vertical line.
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
The line that has no slope?
It is a line parallel to the x or y axes that has no slope.
What is the slope line that is parallel to the x axis?
The lines have slope = 0.
If a line has no slope it is parallel to what axis?
x
What is a Slope of a line parallel to x-y16?
If you mean x-y = 16 then y = x-16 and the slope of the line parallel to it is 1 and it will have a different y intercept
What is The Slope Of A Line Parallel To -x plus Y 12 equals?
The equation -x + y = 12 can be rearranged to y = x + 12. The slope of a line parallel to this line will have the same slope, which is 1.
How can you tell if two equations are parallel?
if they have the same slope If two linear equations are inconsistent - that is, have no solution, then the graphs would be parallel and have the same slope if their slope is defined. Example: x + y = 1 x + y = 2 Example with no slope: x = 1 x = 2
What is the slope of a line that is parrel to the y- axis?
The slope (or gradient) if the line is parallel to the y-axis, is infinite. If it's parallel to the x-axis the slope is zero.
What is the slope of a line that runs parallel to y equals -x 7?
Slope = -1
