To find the equation of the new line after translating the original line y=3x+2 one unit to the right and two units up, we can follow these steps:

  1. Translating the line one unit to the right:

    • To shift a line y=mx+b to the right by h units, we replace x with xh. Here, h=1, so the new equation becomes:
      y=3(x1)+2 y=3x3+2 y=3x1
  2. Translating the line two units up:

    • To shift the line y=mx+b up by k units, we add k to the entire equation. Here, k=2, so we add 2 to the last equation: y=3x1+2 y=3x+1

Thus, the equation of the new line after the translation is y=3x+1.

Therefore, the correct response is: y = 3x + 1
