Answer:
gradient = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the gradient and c the y- intercept )
Given
- 2x + y - 5 = 0 ( add 2x and 5 to both sides )
y = 2x + 5 ← in slope- intercept form
with gradient m = 2
Parallel lines have equal gradients
Gradient of parallel line is m = 2
