Hi,
Note: the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line is
Select the equations of the lines that are parallel to the line whose equation is y = x + 5.
6x + 2y = 12 0r y = -3x + 6
-3x + y = 8 0r y = x + 8 **
3y = 9x 0r y = x **
y = -x

the line whose equation is has a slope ; we can see it because this equation is written in slope-intercept form where represents a slope
the lines that are parallel to the line whose equation is have slope; so, compare given equation to answer options

...........write it first in slope-intercept form

...............as you can see, slope is and ; so, this is your answer

...solve for , move to the right
... as you can see, slope is and ; so, this your answer

..............as you can see, slope is and ; so, this also your answer

....as you can see, slope is and ; so, this is your answer
so, the equations of the lines that are parallel to the line whose equation is are:
and

let se the graph of lines that are parallel
