Choose the equation of a line PARALLEL to the line y = 3x - 1

Answer 1

Parallel lines never intersect, but instead, follow the same slope on a graph. For that reason, all lines with a slope of 3 would be parallel to the line y = 3x - 1. Adding or subtracting a different value of b only shifts the line up or down on the graph.

For example:

y = 3x + 2 shifts the graph up by 3 values of y compared to y = 3x - 1 and is parallel to the original line

Answer 2

y=3x-1

has a parallel line

y =3x +b where b= any real number, except -1

if b=-1 the line is not "parallel" but the identical line

parallel lines never intersect. the identical line has an infinite number of intersections.

y=3x +2

2y=6x +4

3y =9x +6

y= 3x +2,000

y = 3x -5,342

y=3x

and an infinite number of other equations are all parallel lines

Answer 3

Any line with the same slope as the given line would work.

Some examples are y = 3x, y = 3x + 2, y = 3x - 5.
