The equation of line C is y = –4 7x+5 3. Line D is parallel to the line C. What is the slope of line D? Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Question

I really need help with this question please cause I really do not understand this type of math this is geometry and I hate math but I need to learn it so I would really be happy if someone could help me with this thank you.

Answer 1

parallel lines have the same slope

= the coefficient of the x term,

when the linear equation is solved for y

if line C is: y= -47x+53

then the slope of D =-47

but you have a space between the 4 and 7, also between 5 and 3

as if maybe you meant to write

y= (-4/7)x +5/3

if so, then

slope of D = -4/7
