Question

Which of the following is an equation of a line parallel y-1=2x.
Options listed below:
A. 3y-3=2x
B. y=2x-3
C. 3y-3=2x
D. (y=2x-3)/2
E. y=1/2x-3
Please explain, don't just give me the answer please!

Answer 1

I know for sure that A isn't the correct answer, but that's it. I don't even know where to start.

Answer 2

you first solve for y and then find the one with the same slope.

Answer 3

i dont think A is the choice

Answer 4

How would you solve for y if there is another variable in the same equation?

Answer 5

this is for the slope intercept formula. it is suppose to be in y=mx+b form

Answer 6

So, as long as the slope is the same, then the lines are parralel?

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

Alright, thanks! So, real quick, just to clarify, the answer would be B ?

Answer 9

yes
