To answer this question we need to first get the slope of the line 5x-4y=9 by rearranging it in the form of y=mx+b:
5x-4y=9
4y=5x-9
y=(5/4)x-9/4
Since the slope of parallel lines are negative reciprocals of each other, the negative reciprocal of 5/4 is -4/5, therefore the slope of a line parallel to the line 5x-4y=9 is -4/5

How do you find the slope of a parallel line?
Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you know the slope of a line in question, or you can calculate it, then you know the slope of any line parallel to that line.
Find the slope of a line parallel to 3x plus 5y equals 15?
