Example Question #21 : How To Find The Equation Of A Parallel Line
Which of the lines is parallel to ?
Possible Answers:
Correct answer:
Explanation:
In order for the lines to be parallel, both lines must have similar slope.
The current linear equation is in standard form. Rewrite this equation in slope intercept form, .
The slope is represented by the in the equation.
Subtract on both sides.
Simplify the left side and rearrange the right side.
Divide by nine on both sides.
