Question

Write an equation that is parallel to the line 3x-2y=5 and passes through the point (1,2).

A) y=3/2x+2

B) y=2/3x+3

C) y=3/2x+1/2

D) y=-3/2x+1/2

E) y=-2/3x+2 2/3

Answer 1

Parallel lines will have the same slope, so m=3. The point (0, 2) is on the y-axis so it can be used as the y-intercept of the line; b=2. This gives rise to the equation: y= 3x + 2
