Slop of line n is =
Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! if the lines are parallel, they will have the same slope and a different y-intercept.
if they had the same slope and the same y-intercept, they would be identical.
in order for the lines to be parallel, those two conditions need to be there.
same slope.
different y-intercept.
the difference between parallel lines and identical lines is that parallel lines have no points on each line in common while identical lines have all points on each line in common.
the graph of identical lines is the same line, i.e. you see one line rather than 2 separate lines.
