Jermaine May · Answer 1

Answer:2

First, solve for y

-2y=7-4x

Y=2x-7/2

y=mx+b

What we really want to know is the slope (m)

Tess Tyler · Answer 2

Use the slope-intercept form

y = m x + b

to find the slope m and y-intercept b.

Slope:

2

y-intercept:

- 7 2

Lines with the same slope are parallel.

parallel = 2
