The correct answer is:

Any equation that is a multiple of y=3x-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to graph as the same line, the equations must be the same. This means that all pieces of the first equation must be multiplied by the same factor, or the equation must be rewritten.

y = 3x + 23x – y = 23x – y = 1 3x + y = 1
