Which of the following is an equation of a line parallel to the equation y=(1)/(2) x+1

Question

which of the following is an equation of a line parallel to the equation
`y=(1)/(2) x+1`

Answer 1

Any equation of a line having a slope of 1/2.

Explanation:

It appears that the question gives answer choices and this problem could have many solutions, but parallel lines have equal slopes. The slope of this line is 1/2 since it is in y=mx+b form where m is the slope. So a few examples of equations of lines parallel to the given equation would be y = 1/2x - 5 or y = 1/2x + 10 etc.
