What is the slope of a line parallel to a line whose slope is 5/2?

5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slopes

Step-by-step explanation:

because the new line is parallel, it will have the same slope as the original equation.

we know the slope and a point, so we can use the point slope formula:

y

is the y coodinate,

x

and m is the slope

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11 -1> 1 -1+ a

-12 > a
