Q:

Write an equation that is parallel to the line 3x -2y = 5 and passes through the point (1,2).A. y = 3/2x + 2B. y = -2/3x + 3C. y = 3/2x+ 1/2D. y = -3/2x + 1/2

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:The answer to your question is: letter C:   y = 3/2x + 1/2Step-by-step explanation:DataParallel to 3x - 2y = 5Point = (1, 2)Get the slope                          -2y = -3x + 5                              y = -3/-2 x - 5/2                              y = 3/2 x - 5/2slope = 3/2 Equation                        (y - y1) = m (x - x1)                         ( y - 2) = 3/2 (x - 1)                          y -2 = 3/2 x  - 3/2                          y  = 3/2 x - 3/2 + 2                         y = 3/2x + 1/2
