Find the Slope of a Parallel Line
y
=
x
−
2
y
=
x
-
2
Step 1
Use the
slope-intercept
form to find the
slope
.
Tap for more steps...
Step 1.1
The
slope-intercept
form is
y
=
m
x
+
b
y
=
m
x
+
b
, where
m
m
is the
slope
and
b
b
is the
y-intercept
.
y
=
m
x
+
b
y
=
m
x
+
b
Step 1.2
Using the
slope-intercept
form, the
slope
is
1
1
.
m
=
1
m
=

m
=

m
=
1
Step 2
All
lines
that are
parallel
to
y
=
x
−

y
=
x
-

have the same
slope
of
1
1
.
m
