Question

Y=-5x+5 Find the slope of a line parallelto each given line?

Answer 1

Answer: -5

Explanation:

Our task is to find the slope of a line parallel to the line
`\bf{y=-5x+5}`.

Main Idea :

If two lines are parallel to one another, their slopes are equal.

Therefore, the slopes of y = -5x + 5 and the line that's parallel to it are equal.

The slope of y = -5x + 5 is -5; the slope of the line that's parallel to it is also -5.

Answer 2

Answer: -5

Explanation:

Parallel lines have congruent, or the same, slopes. This means that in the line y = -5x + 5, our slope of any parallel line will be -5. This equation is given in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the slope.
