Question

So, a line parallel to y =ax + c will have a slope of

A. a
B. A number not equal to a
C. 1/a

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = ax + x ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = a

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

then the slope of a line parallel to y = ax + c is

slope = a
