Line AB has an equation of a line y = 5x − 2. Which of the following could be an equation for a line that is parallel to line AB

Answer:
y = 5x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Your function is
y= 5x - 2
slope = 5
The line must have slope = 5.
(a) y = 5x + 3
slope = 5, ∴ Parallel.
(b) y = 1/(5x) + 3.
Not a straight line. ∴ Not parallel.
(c) y = -5x +3
slope = -5 ∴ Not parallel.
(d) y = -1/(5x )+ 3
Not a straight line. ∴ Not parallel.
The Figure below shows the graph of y = 5x -2 (black) and that of the parallel line y = 5x + 3 (green).

The cost of units used
First, calculate the number of units used.
Next, multiply the units used by the cost per units,
Since the cost per unit is not given, we assume that it is x.
So, the total cost is:
