Answer

The slope of a line that is parallel to the graph of the equation is $1$.

Work Step by Step

We are given $y=x+3$. Nonvertical lines are parallel if they have the same slope and different y-intercepts. Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line, where m represents the slope: $y=mx+b$ $y=1x+3$ Therefore, the slope of a line that is parallel to the graph of the equation is $1$.
