Question

What is the equation of the line that has a y-intercept of 5 and is parallel to

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, turn 2x - y = 16 into 2x - 16 = y by adding the y on both sides and subtracting 16 from both sides.

You'll see that option A is the only option that matches the original function that we're comparing to.

Graphs will always be parallel to each other if they have the same slope, and both these functions have the same slope of 2.
