This Question: 1 pt 3 O Find the slope of a line parallel to 12x-4y 16 Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. O A. The slope is IType an integer or a simplified fraction.) O B. The slope is undefined. Click to select and enter your answer(s). 20

Solution

SOLUTION:

The Slope m of a straight line ax+by=c is: m=-a/b.

Also any two parallel line has same slope.

Now slope of 12x-4y=-16 is :m= -12/-4=3.

     Therefore slope of line parallel to this line is also 3.
