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

Answer:
[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x +\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is ;
[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}[/tex].
If we compare to [tex]y=mx+c[/tex], the slope this line is
[tex]m=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
The equation that is parallel to this line also has slope, [tex]m=\frac{3}{4}[/tex].
From the give options, the equation is [tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x +\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Answer:
Choice C is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given a equation of line.
y = 3/4x-1/2
We have to find the equation of line that is parallel to given equation of line.
y = mx +c is slope-intercept form of equation of line where m is slope and c is y-intercept.
Comparing given equation with slope-intercept form, we have
m = -3/4 and c = -1/2
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
Hence, parallel line have slope equal to 3/4.
Hence, from given choices y = 3/4x+1/2 have slope equal to 3/4.
Hence, choice C is the correct answer.
