CCSS.8.F.A.3

Create a parallel equation to y = 2x - 6.

Answer explanation

To create a parallel equation, the slope remains the same. Therefore, the correct equation is y = 2x + 6, as it has the same slope of 2. The other answer choices do not have the same slope.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of each line.

• Parallel

• Perpendicular

• Neither

• Pie
