Which is the equation of a line parallel to the line with the equation: y = 14x + 2

y = -4x - 7

y = 4x + 2

y = 14x − 12

y = −14x + 3

Hi!

y = ax + b

y = 14x + 2 → a = 14 ∧ b = 2

Parallel lines have the same slope factor (a) so line parallel to the line with the equation y = 14x + 2 will be y = 14x - 12
