Which equations are parallel to the given line?


y = 3x -5


Select ALL that apply


A.
y = -3x +4

B.
y = 3x +2

C.
6x - 2y = -4

D.
6x + 2y = -4

Answer 1

Answer:

B. y = 3x + 2    and     C. 6x - 2y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for two lines to be parallel, their slope must be the same. The standard form of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In y = 3x - 5, the slope is 3, so we have to find al the other answers with a slope 3. BUT we still have to put answer choice C. and D. into standard form. They become this:

C. y = 3x+2

D. y = -3x -2

Therefore, our answer would be B and C.
