Given:
y = 5x + 3
Determine the slope of the line that is parallel to the given.
Explanation:
Parallel means that they have the same slope, hence we can find the slope of the line by referring to the slope-intercept form equations, since the given line is represented in that form.
Slope-Intercept Form:
y= mx + b
y = 5x + 3
m = slope
m = 5
Final answer:
m = 5
