Answer:

A line parallel to this line will have slope 4/5.

Explanation:

2 parallel lines will have the same slope.

y = mx + c is the general form of the slope-intercept formula of a line, the slope is given by m.

y = 4/5 x - 3

-we see by comparing the 2 equations that the slope of this line (m) is 4/5.
