Slope of a line perpendicular to x-y=16
y equals 3x has the greater slope.
If the equation is: y = -x then the slope is -1 and there is no y intercept
The slope is 1.
It equals the slope of the line y = -x. That's a pretty darn strong hint right there is what that is.

A single value for x and a single value for y represent a point, not a line. A point cannot have a slope.
If you mean -x+y = 12 then y = x+12 and so the parallel line will have the same slope but with a different y intercept.
The equation for the slope of a line is y=mx+b
Slope = -1
If: y = 7 then there is no slope and the line will be parallel to the x axis
Any line with a slope of 1 is parallel to y=x-3.
1, it will have the same slope but the y intercept will be different.
