Identify the slope of a line that would parallel to the given line. 1. -4x+2y=4 2. y-5=3(x-2)
long time huh :P
yep
mkay lemme see
Im stumped :/ @mathstudent55 @iGreen
lol
lol :-/
@paki
well i g2g ;/ but cya around next time maybe i will be able to help
Which line is it??
ok
The first one or the second one?
there is no line idk y my teacher gave this homework to me
Your help is here :D @campbell_st
both
-4x+2y=4 Change to Slope-Intercept Form(y = mx + b): -4x + 2y = 4 Add 4x to both sides: 2y = 4x + 4 Divide 2 to all terms: y = 2x + 2 Now it's in the form of y = mx + b, where m = slope. So what's the slope of the y = 2x + 2? @Candy13106
slope=2
Yep, and Parallel lines have the same slope..so the slope of the second line will be 2.
That's for the first equation.
ok wat about the second question
y - 5 = 3(x - 2) is in the form of y1 - y = m(x - x1), where m = slope, so what's the slope of y - 5 = 3(x - 2)? @Candy13106
point slope form \[y = y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})~~~~~point~~(x_{1}, y_{1})~~~~ slope = m\] what is the slope in the 2nd line
slope=3
Yep, since parallel lines have the same slope, the slope of the 2nd line for y - 5 = 3(x - 2) is 3.
oh ok thanks for helping
-4x + 2y = 4 Slope of 2nd line = 2 y - 5 = 3(x - 2) Slope of 2nd line = 3
No problem! @Candy13106
I green can u help me
Sure just make your own question and tag me using the @ key.
