Question

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the graph of 4x +1y = 47

Answer 1

The answer is negative four

Explanation:

4x+1y=47 can be simplified to 4x+y=47.

To find the slope, we solve for Y.

Subtract 4x from both sides.

y=47-4x

Then, move it into standard slope formula, which is y=mx+b

y=-4x+47
