I am so confused
OpenStudy (triciaal):
@horsegirl27 we are here to help you if you will calm down and follow along. It's not difficult if you are willing to learn the material . In additional to that we can't just give answers that would not be helping you to get ahead.
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
I know so wait how to I find the slope? Explain it too me and that should be good

as above parallel lines have the same slope .
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
ok
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
How do I find the slope again?
OpenStudy (triciaal):
y = m x + b is the general equation of the line in slope intercept form where m is the slope and b is the intercept for a point on the line (x,y)
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
yes ok so y=-3x+12 is slope intercept form

the slope of the line is the same for any 2 points on the line.
the slope is the change in y as a ratio to the corresponding change in the x
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
So 12 is the y -intercept right
OpenStudy (triciaal):
yes
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
ok
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
what is the slope?

I am confused how to find the slope
OpenStudy (triciaal):
parallel lines have the same slope and we will use this information to find the equation of the new line at the point given
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
oh
OpenStudy (horsegirl27):
But what is the slope thats what I'm confused by
OpenStudy (triciaal):
from the line that was given in slope intercept form the one you recognized m is the slope so the slope is -3
