Do parallel lines have the same slope and y intercept?

Parallel lines have the same slope, which makes them parallel. However, they cannot have the same y intercept, or else it would be the same line.


What is the slope of a line parallel to 4x y -1?

What are lines called that have the same slope and the same y intercept?

parallel lines.


What is the slope of the line parallel to -3x 5y 17?

It will have the same slope but a different y intercept


Write equation in slope intercept form for the line parallel to y equals 3x-3 and with a y intercept of -4?

Since the two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope, 3. Thus, the equation of the line with y-intercept -4, and parallel to y = 3x - 3 is y = 3x - 4.


Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line parallel to y equals -3 and with a y intercept of 7?

The line 'Y = - 3' has a slope of zero. Any line parallel to it also has a slope of zero. The line parallel to it with a Y-intercept of 7 is: Y = 7


What is the relationship between the equations of parallel lines?

They have the same slope. If you write the lines in the slope-intercept form, you will get, for each line: y = ax + b where a is the slope, and b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). For two or more parallel lines, the coefficient "a" will be the same.

What is the slope of a line parallel to 3 X plus 5y 15?

It will have the same slope but with a different y intercept


What is the slope of a line parallel to -8x plus y 2?

If you mean: -8x+y = 2 then y = 8x+2 and the line parallel to it will have the same slope of 8 but with a different y intercept.


What is the slope of a line that has a y-intercept but no x-intercept?

A line with a y-intercept but no x-intercept will be a straight line parallel to the x axis. It will have a slope of zero.
