Question

What is the slope of a line that runs parallel to y = 2x + 5

Answer 1

1,7

Answer 2

recall slope is raise over run

Answer 3

so what is the slope of the line now?

Answer 4

is 1,7 the answer you are saying?

Answer 5

yeah what do you mean raise over run

Answer 6

this is what I am trying to do with slope
y=mx + b
parallel lines have the same slope so m=2

1 = 4*2 + b
b= - 7

y=2x-7

Answer 7

5?

Answer 8

yes right.
