Q.

What will be the slope of the line given by ax + by + c = 0?

A. -a/b
B. -b/a
C. -c/a
D. a/c
Answer» A. -a/b
Explanation: the slope of a line given by the equation ax + by + c=0 has the slope of -a/b. so two lines having the same ratio of the coefficient of x and y will be parallel to each other.
