The slope of any parallel lines is always the same. Parallel means they are co-planar which means lie in the same plane, and never intersect. In order for the lines to not intersect you would need the same slope. In this case the answer is -2/3.

How do you identify the slope of the line that that would be parallel to the given line y5-3x?
Calculate the slope of the given line. Any line parallel to it will have the same slope.
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to a horizontal line?
Well since the lines are parallel they would have the same slope. And the slope of any horizontal line is 0. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
What is the slope of a line parallel to a vertical line?
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
What would a graph that has a negative slope show?
It would have a downhill slope from left to right
Do all parallel lines have a slope of zero?
No. the slope of parallel lines would be equal but not necessarily zero. How many values can m have in " y=mx +b "? where m is the slope of the lines.
If the slope of a line is two over three what is the slope of a line that is parallel to this line?
The slope is rise over run. If another line was parallel, the slope would be the same.
What would be the slope of a line parallel to y equals -x - 10?
-1 (negative 1)
What is the slope of a line parallel to a line with slope -2?
For two lines to be parallel they must have the same slope. A line parallel to a line with slope -2 would have a slope of -2.
If one line has a slope of then the slope of a line parallel to it would be?
The same. Parallel lines have the same slope.
The slope of a line is 2 3 what is the slope of a line that is parallel to it?
if the slope of a line is 2/3, then the slope of a parallel line would be 2/3.
If the slope of a line is zero What is the slope of the line that is parallel to it?
The parallel line would also have a slope of zero (both are horizontal lines).
How do you identify the slope of the line that that would be parallel to the given line y5-3x?
Calculate the slope of the given line. Any line parallel to it will have the same slope.
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to a horizontal line?
Well since the lines are parallel they would have the same slope. And the slope of any horizontal line is 0. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
What if the slope is negative already what would be the reciprocal?
It would be the negative of the negative reciprocal. And since the negative of a negative is a posivie, it is the positive reciprocal.. For example, if the slope was -3, the other would be 1/3.
What is the slope of a line parallel to a vertical line?
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
Does parallel lines always have the same slope?
Yes, that's what makes them parallel lines - they have the same slope. So they never will intersect with each other. If a set of lines didn't have the same slope, at some point they would intersect and thus would not be parallel.
What would a graph that has a negative slope show?
It would have a downhill slope from left to right
