slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 5x + 3 y = 7
when two lines are parallel then their slopes are also equal, m1=m2
from given equation 5x+3y=7 we can make slope intercept form equation that is y=mx+c
now, 3y=-5x+7
divide both side by 3
y=-5/3x+7/3
here m1=-5/3
then m2=m1=-5/3
so slope of line parallel to other line is -5/3
