Slope is found by this form. Y = mX + c ( m = slope ) - 5X - 7Y - 6 = 0 ( I assume this is what you mean ) - 7Y - 6 = 5X - 7Y = 5X + 6 Y = - 5/7X - 6/7 The slope would be in this instance, - 5/7 ----------

y = -7x + 6 is the equation of a straight line. It has a slope of '-7' and a y-intercept of '6'. For it to be parallel it must be compared to another line. e.g. y = -7x + 12 is a paralle line However, y = 7x + 6 is NOT a parallel line, because the slope is in a different direction.
Slope is 6.
Put in this form to see. Y = mX + c9X + 3Y = 63Y = - 9X + 6Y = - 3X + 2=========The slope of the line you seek is - 3.
The slope of any line parallel to this line is the same as the slope of the line itself, by the definition of "parallel" 7x + 9y = 6 can be rewritten as y =(6 - 7x)/9. To find the slope of such a line, select two distinct values of x denoted x1 and x2, then calculate the corresponding values y1 and y2. The slope will then be equal to (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). For example, if x1 is zero, y1 = 6/9 = 2/3. If x2 is one, y2 = -(1/9). The slope is therefore: (- 1/9 - 2/3)/(1 - 0) = - (7/9).
