Answer:

A

Explanation:

in order to find the answer take into mind what the question is asking for.

The equation has to pass the point (12,3) and has to be parallel to y=(4/3)x+5.

since the equations have to be parallel you can take out D since it has the reciprocal of the slope of the original equation.

You could also take out the negative equation C since the original one is not negative.

then you would have to graph the equations and would find that A is the answer because in order to have a point (12,3) you need to either start from the negative y-axis and ascend or from the positive axis and descend but B doesn't go down it goes up since it has a positive y value and has a positive slope. So in conclusion the answer would be A.


y = (4 )/(3) x - 13
