Which of the following is the equation of a line parallel to the line y=10x+2, passing through the point (3,1) 1. 10x-y=29 2. 10x-y=-29 3. -10x-y=29 4. 10x+y=29

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the 10 in the 10x is the slope of the line - a parallel line will have the same slope

OpenStudy (welshfella):

so you can eliminate 3

OpenStudy (lilmike234):

So my answer would be 10x-y=29 correct ?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

you can find out if its 1 2 or 4 by plugging in the point (3,1) into each one and seeing if they fit

OpenStudy (welshfella):

10(3) - 1 = 29 thats correct

OpenStudy (welshfella):

no 1
