y = 0.75x+0.5
For the equation to be parallel the slope must be the same but the y intercept must be different
q2
-4
y equals 4x+1 is a parallel line to y equals 4x.
The parallel equation is: y = 4x-3
There is no "equals" sign therefore "x-9" is NOT an equation.

q2
-4
(Y = -2x plus or minus any number) is parallel to (Y = -2x + 5) .
y equals 4x+1 is a parallel line to y equals 4x.
The parallel equation is: y = 4x-3
5
There is no "equals" sign therefore "x-9" is NOT an equation.
When a straight line equation is parallel to another equation the slope remains the same but the y intercept changes
Parallel, the slope of the second equation is 4
The slope is -4
To check this, you substitute the values for x and y into the equation. At (1,2) x equals 1 and y equals 2 so substituting this in we get: x + 2y = 1 + 2(2) = 1 + 4 = 5 And since it equals 5 like in the original equation the point is represented by it.
