Question

PLS HELP!!!
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation 3x + 4y = 12?

Answer 1

I think the slope is 3/4?

Answer 2

@Hero
Would it be negative 3/4?

Answer 3

Yes it would be -\(\frac34\)
\(1)~3x+4y=12\) Subtract 3x on both sides
\(2)~4y=-3x+12\)Divide by 4 on both sides
\(3)~y=-\frac34+3\)
