    Answer:

    4/5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope. So, we first need to put the equation in slope intercept form (y = kx + b)

    8x – 10y = -60

    -10y = -8x – 60

    y = 4/5x + 6

    So the slope is 4/5.

    Answer:

    In slope intercept form -5y = -4 – 30

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Slope intercept form is y=mx + b

    Rewrite your equation in this form

    -10y = -8x – 60

    Find GCF (Greatest Common Factor) in this case it is 2

    Divide all by 2

    -5y = -4x – 30
