Given data:

The given equation of the line is y=7/4x+4/7.

The standard expression for the equation of the line is,

y=mx+c

Compare the given equation with the above expression.

m=7/4

Two parallel lines have equal slope, the slope of the line n whhich is parallel to the first line is,

m'=m

m'=7/4

Thus, the slope of the lline which is parallel to the given line is m'=7/4.
