Question

What is the slope of a line parallel to a line with equation -4y + 7x = 20?

Answer 1

`{ \underline{ \sf{slope \: is \: (7)/(4) }}}`

Explanation:

Parallel lines have same slopes.

General equation of line:

`y = mx + c`

the line given:

`- 4y + 7x = 20 \\ 4y = 7x - 20 \\ y = (7)/(4) x - 5`
