Parallel lines are equal and have the same slope. The slope law for parallel lines can be expressed as follows
[tex]\begin{gathered} m_1=m_2 \\ \text{where} \\ m_1=\text{slope 1} \\ m_2=\text{slope 2} \end{gathered}[/tex]The slope point equation can be express as below
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=mx+c \\ \text{where} \\ m=\text{slope or gradient} \\ c=\text{intercept} \\ \text{Therefore} \\ y=\frac{4}{5}x-3 \\ \text{the slope will be }\frac{4}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]The slope is 4/5
