What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line

represented by the equation y - 4x = 1?

m=4

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the equation in slope intercept form

y - 4x = 1

Add 4x to each side

y - 4x+4x = 4x+1

y = 4x+1

This is in the form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 4

Parallel lines have the same slope

m = 4
