What is the slope of a line is PARALLEL to the line with this equation y=y = (1)/(2) x + 7

Question

what is the slope of a line is PARALLEL to the line with this equation y=
`y = (1)/(2) x + 7`

Answer 1

Our line equation is

`y=(1)/(2)x+7`

where the slope m=1/2 and the y-intercept b is b=7.

Parallel lines has the same slope. Hence, their slope is always

`m=(1)/(2)`

in this case.
