(3,1)(0,2)
so slope = (2-1) / (0-3) = 1/-3 = -1/3
parallel has same slope = -1/3
b = 2

equation
y = -1/3x + 2

answer
equation is y = -1/3x +2. I don't see any of those above matched

B is, just find the equation of the line and see what the slope is, once you have the slope see what answer has the same slope
