Find the slope of the line that passes through the point (3, -9) and is parallel to y = 7x + 8.

The slope is ___.

misty1212 · Answer

slope of $y=7x-8$ is $7$ right?

misty1212 · Answer

use the point slope formula and get 
$$y+9=7(x-3)$$

anonymous · Answer

so the slope is y+9=7(x-3)? @misty1212

anonymous · Answer

If you're given an equation of a line, the slope is given (the number in front of the X). Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope is still 7 :) Hope this helps!

anonymous · Answer

Parallel lines have the same slope. the slope of the equation give is 7 so the paralle line is also 7
