Question

Write an equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is parallel to the graph of y = 2x + 5/4 and has a y-intercept of -1/2.

A. y=2x+5/4
B. y=1/2x-1/2
C. y=-1/2x-1/2
D. 2x-1/2

Answer 1

Answer: y = 2x - 1/2

Explanation:

1. graph the first line

2. shift it down enough to get the correct y intercept

3. keep the slope the same

4. done
