    The slope of any line parallel to the given line is 0.8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    we have the line

    8x-10y=42

    Isolate the variable y

    Adds 10y both sides

    8x-10y+10y=42+10y

    8x=42+10y

    Subtract 42 both sides

    8x-42=10y

    Divide by 10 both sides

    y=0.8x-4.2

    The slope m is equal to

    m=0.8

    Remember that

    If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

    therefore

    The slope of any line parallel to the given line is 0.8
