Which is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line represented by y=3/4x-1/2?

Answer:
3rd option ([tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines are said to be parallel of they have same slope.
For a line written in the standard form:
[tex]y=mx+q[/tex]
m represents the slope while q is the y-intercept.
The line mentioned in the text of the problem is
[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
so it has slope of [tex]m=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]. Therefore we have two find the line with the same slope among the options given.
Looking at the options given, we see that the third line:
[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
has the same slope (3/4), therefore it is the correct choice.
Answer:
Choice C is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given a equation:
y=3/4x-1/2.
We have to find the equation parallel to the line y=3/4x-1/2.
We know that the parallel lines have equal slope so, the slope of required line is:
m = 3/4
Choice C is y=3/4x+1/2 where slope is 3/4.
So, choice C is correct.
y=3/4x+1/2 is the line parallel to the given line.
