Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the line 3x - 4y + 12 = 0 is parallel to another line, what is the slope of the parallel line?
  • Step 1: Start with the equation of the line: 3x - 4y + 12 = 0.
  • Step 2: Rearrange the equation to solve for y. Move 3x and 12 to the other side: -4y = -3x - 12.
  • Step 3: Divide every term by -4 to isolate y: y = (3/4)x + 3.
  • Step 4: Identify the slope from the equation y = (3/4)x + 3. The slope is 3/4.
  • Step 5: Remember that parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the parallel line is also 3/4.
