Question

which of these equations represents a line parallel to the graph of the equatioNy=-1/3x-5a)y= 3x-5b)y= -1/3x-5c)y= -3x+20d)y= -5x+3

Answer 1

da0606456, this is the solution:

Let's find the slope of the equation given:

m = - 1/3

The parallel line should have the same slope. There is only one of the choices given that has -1/3 as slope.

The correct answer is B. y= -1/3x-5
