Question

Determine whether the graphs of the pair of lines are parallel.
x+12=y
y-x=-8
The slope of the line x+12=y is?

Answer 1

yes. both have the same slope

Answer 2

soo what would the slope be? Im confused

Answer 3

yeap both have same slope, so parallel. The slope of the given line is 1

Answer 4

I can explain it to ya.

Answer 5

just compare the given linear equation with y=mx+c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

Answer 6

Please do

Answer 7

x+12 =y
that means y = x+12
the slope intercept form of a line is y = mx+b, where m is the slope
y = (1)x+12
so slope is 1

Answer 8

Ooooh , okay I got it now . Thanks

Answer 9

The trick is to make both equations say y= blah blah
If the number in front of the x are the same, then they're parallel.
You know how to set them to where it says y=??????

Answer 10

yes
