Which equation represents a line which is parallel to the line ?
this line has a slope
recall: parallel lines have slope, so write all equations in slope intercept form

a.
=>=>slope is => it's not parallel line to given line
b.
=>=>=>slope is => it's not parallel line to given line
c.
=>=>=>slope is => it's not parallel line to given line
d.
=>=>slope is => it parallel line to given line

answer: d
