What is the slope of the line that passes through (1,0) and is parallel to y = 3x + 5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if a line is parallel to the given line then its slope will same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the slope is? i dont know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = mx+c where m is the slope so you have the slope for y = 3x + c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats x and c?

Nnesha (nnesha):

whats your slope in this equation y =3x + 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

Nnesha (nnesha):

y = mx + b this is slope intercept form equation where m is slope and b is y-ntercept slope is always with x

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes so slope is 3 and parallel equation have same slope so what is the slope of other equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 too

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh okay i got it now

Nnesha (nnesha):
