You can put this solution on YOUR website! the slope intercept form of the equation of a straight line is y = mx + b.
m is the slope.
b is the y-intercept.
parallel lines have the same slope and a different y-intercept.
option a and c have the same slope but a different y-intercept, so they are parallel.
