Question

which equation represents a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation y=3/4x-1/2
a)y=2x-3/4
b)y=3/4x+1/2
c)y=-4/3x-1/2
d)y=-1/2+3/4

Answer 1

y=mx+b
If the m is the same, the lines are parallel.

Answer 2

It is b) y=3/4x+1/2 which has the same slope 3/4 as that of the given line y=3/4x-1/2 and so is the line parallel to the line y=3/4x-1/2
