Question

.
Which equation represents a line that is parallel to the line y = 3/4ths x + 7

Answer 1

Parallel lines have the same slope. The given line has slope 3/4, so any line of the form

y = (3/4)x + b

with b ≠ 7 is parallel. For example:

y = (3/4)x − 2

(or in standard form: 3x − 4y = 12).
