The correct choice is "y = (2/3)x + 2"

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure, attached, given line passes through two points ( 3, 1 ) and ( 0, 1 ).

So slope of the line will be = [tex]\frac{(y-y')}{(x-x')}[/tex]

                                            =  [tex]\frac{(1+1)}{(3-0)}[/tex]

                                            =  [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Now a line which is parallel to this line will have same slope as ( [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ) and equation will be y = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x + c

Now it is given that this line passes through ( -3, 0 )

[ x-intercept given as (-3)]

We plug in the values in the equation to get the value of c

0 = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ( -3) + 6

0 = -2 + c ⇒ c = 2

Therefore, equation will be y = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x + 2

Option B is the answer.
