What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation. Y= -2/5 X+ 4/5

Answer :

Solution:

We know that:

  • Formula for slope intercept form = y = mx + b (m = slope; b = y-intercept)
  • Given equation: y = -2x/5 + 4/5

Compare the equation and the formula:

  • y = mx + b and y = -2x/5 + 4/5

This means that:

  • m = -2/5
  • b = 4/5

Hence, the slope of the line is -0.4.
