Question

Which of the following could be the equation of a line parallel to the line y = 4x - 7?A. y = 3x - 7B. y = 4x + 3C. y = -4x + 3D. y = -1/4x - 7

Answer 1

B) y= 4x +3

1) Parallel lines have the same slope.

So since the line is y=4x-7 let's examine the options

The option B, the equation has the same slope m=4.

2) y=4x +3 is parallel to y=4x -7,
