Well, if a line is parallel to another, they share the same slope. Why that is, I can further explain in the comments if you're interested. Anyway, because we know this line is parallel to 3x-5, it MUST have a slope of 3, since that is the slope of the other line. So you can go ahead and mark out those last 3 answers. You could also mark out the first one since it's the EXACT SAME line as the one were given, so it wouldn't be parallel, it would just be equal to it. So we know the answer has to be B. What if A wasn't the same as the line given though? in that case, we could look at the point you're given. it describes the y intercept of our unknown line, since the point occurs at x=0. If that doesn't make sense, let me know and I can elaborate on why that is. Anyway, if we're looking at the general form of a line, y = mx + b, b describes the y value at which the y-intercept occurs. the y intercept were given occurs at y= 7, so the b value of our line must be 7. This agrees with answer B.
Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any questions! :)
Is this correct ? Hope this helped!
Let us say that the number of weeks is "x" and the number of chores is "y".
If we state an algebraic expression for Janie's allowance it would be
3x+2y=13
However, there are two variables, hence many answers. To solve this problem, there must be more information about the relation between x and y.
"Interpret the rate of change and the y-intercept.
"
Rate of change is 5. Each ticket costs 5$.
Y-intercept is (0,-17). They spent $17 on supplies before they sold tickets.
(Sorry, you probably already know the answer)
