Parallel lines have equal slopes.
The line parallel to the graph of [tex]y = -\frac 23x - 5[/tex] has a slope of -2/3
The equation of the line is given as:
[tex]y = -\frac 23x - 5\\[/tex]
A linear equation is represented as:
[tex]y = mx + c[/tex]
Such that: m represents the slope
For two lines with slopes m1 and m2.
If the lines are parallel, then:
[tex]m_1 = m_2[/tex]
This means that:
A line parallel to the graph of [tex]y = -\frac 23x - 5[/tex] has a slope of -2/3
