Question

Which of the following is an equation of a oine parallel to the equation y=-5x-1

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - 5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 5x - 1 is in this form

with slope m = - 5

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

The only equation from the list with m = - 5 is

y = - 5x + 3
