Question

Explain or show - Describe how the graph of y=3x+1 is the same and different from the graph of y=3x+4. your reasoning YA a. How are they the same? b. How are they different? x c. Explain or show your reasoning: (Feel free to use graph paper if you'd like.)​

Answer 1

a.) they have the same slope

b.) they have different y-intersepts

c.) in the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. since the two equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts we can infer they are parallel.
