What is true about the slope of parallel lines?
The slopes will be the same. It is also possible that both parallel lines have no slope defined - if they are vertical.
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
How many ways can you prove that two lines are parallel?
Two lines are parallel if they never cross one another. Another way to tell if they are parallel is if they have the same slope. Also, if the same line intersects both of them at a 90 degree angle, they would be parallel (in other words, if both lines are perpendicular to a common line, they are paraellel).
Find the slope of a line parallel to the graph of y 4x 2?
y = 4x + 2 Find the slope of a line parallel to the given equation. First, let's take a look at what it means to be parallel. The easiest way to look at it, is to think of railroad tracks. Parallel lines are the same distance apart for EVERY point on the line. This means, parallel lines will NEVER, ever cross. There will never be a point in common with both. Now think about how this will help us with our slope in the equation. Try to answer the following. Our parallel line will have: a) the same slope as the given line OR b) a different slope as the given line That's right, (a). If you're asked to find the equation/slope of a parallel line to a given line, the parallel line will always have the exact SAME slope as your given line! Since our given line y= 4x +2 has a slope of 4, the parallel line to y = 4x +2 will also have a slope of 4. Remember, the general form of a linear equation is y = mx +b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.
What is an undefined quotient?
A quotient in which the numerator or denominator are undefined will be undefined. For example p/q is an undefined quotient until you know something about p and q. Also, if the denominator is zero, the division is undefined.
What is the slope of a line parallel to a vertical line?
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
What is the slope of a parallel line?
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you have a line with slope = 2, for example, and another line is parallel to the first line, it will also have slope = 2.
If the slope of a line is 13 what is the slope of a line parallel to it?
Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the second line is also 13.
What is the slope of a line parallel to a line whose slope is 0?
It is also zero as parallel lines have the same slope
If two lines are parallel and one has a slope of -7 what is the slope of the other line?
If they are parallel then the slope of the other line is also 7
If the slope of a line is zero What is the slope of the line that is parallel to it?
The parallel line would also have a slope of zero (both are horizontal lines).
What is true about the slope of parallel lines?
The slopes will be the same. It is also possible that both parallel lines have no slope defined - if they are vertical.
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
What is the slope of a line parallel to this one 4x-2y-3?
If you mean: 4x-2y = -3 then the slope of the line parallel to it will also have a slope of 2 but with a different y intercept
Find the slope parallel to x y 20?
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 a line parallel to this one 4x-2y -3?
If you mean: 4x-2y = -3 then in its slope-intercept form it is y = 2x+1.5 and the slope of the line parallel to it will also be 2 but with a different y intercept
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
