what is the slope of the line that is parallel to y=3x+5

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Any ideas?

OpenStudy (sandraf8129):

y=3x ?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Yes, that is an equation of a line parallel to y=3x +5 But what does the question ask for?

OpenStudy (sandraf8129):

its just asking what is the slope of a line that is parallel to y=3x+5 thats it

OpenStudy (sandraf8129):

theirs no multiple choice

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

In the slope-intercept form of an equation of a line: y = mx + b the value of m is called what?

OpenStudy (sandraf8129):

m is 3 its the independent variable

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

x is the independent variable what is m called?

OpenStudy (sandraf8129):

the slope

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

so what is your answer?

OpenStudy (sandraf8129):

parallel lines are lines in the same plane that do not intersect; nonvertical lines that have the same slope
