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
