Parallel lines have equal gradients.

First, list down the gradients of each equation.

Note that in the gradient-intercept form $(y=$ $m$ $x+b)$ , $m$ is the gradient.

$\text(A.)$ $y$ $=$ $2/3$ $x+7$

$m_A$ $=$ $2/3$

$\text(B.)$ $y$ $=$ $2/5$ $x+7$

$m_B$ $=$ $2/5$

$\text(C.)$ $y$ $=$ $2/3$ $x-4$

$m_C$ $=$ $2/3$

Identify which equations have equal gradients.

$m_A$ $=$ $m_C$ $=$ $2/3$

Therefore, equations $A$ and $C$ are parallel.

$\text(A.) y=2/3x+7$

$\text(C.) y=2/3x-4$

1. $y=8/3x-4$
2. $y=3x+4/3$
3. $y=8x-12$
4. $y=3x-8$

$y -$ $y_1$	$=$	$m$ $(x-$ $x_1$ $)$
$y -$ $(-4)$	$=$	$(-2)$ $(x-$ $3$ $)$
$y+4$	$=$	$-2(x-3)$	Simplify
$y+4$	$=$	$-2x+6$	Distribute inside parenthesis
$y+4$ $-4$	$=$	$-2x+6$ $-4$	Subtract $4$ from both sides
$y$	$=$	$-2x+2$

$2x-hy$	$=$	$5$
$2x-hy$ $-2x$	$=$	$5$ $-2x$	Subtract $2x$ from both sides.
$-hy$	$=$	$-2x+5$
$hy$	$=$	$2x-5$	Convert the sign.
$hy$ $divide h$	$=$	$(2x-5)$ $divide h$	Divide both sides by $h$ .

$y$	$=$	$2/hx-5/h$


$3x+4y-8$	$=$	$0$
$3x+4y-8$ $-(3x-8)$	$=$	$0$ $-(3x-8)$	Subtract $3x-8$ from both sides.
$4y$	$=$	$-3x+8$
$4y$ $divide 4$	$=$	$(-3x+8)$ $divide 4$	Divide both sides by $4$ .

$y$	$=$	$(-3)/4x+2$

$2/h$	$=$	$(-3)/4$

$2times4$	$=$	$-3timesh$	Cross multiply
$8$	$=$	$-3h$
$8$ $divide(-3)$	$=$	$-3h$ $divide(-3)$	Divide both sides by $-3$

$-8/3$	$=$	$h$

$h$	$=$	$-2 2/3$	Simplify

$y – color(royalblue)(y_1)$	$=$	$color(tomato)(m)(x- color(royalblue)(x_1))$
$y – color(royalblue)((0))$	$=$	$color(tomato)((-5))(x- color(royalblue)(5))$
$y$	$=$	$-5(x-5)$	Simplify
$y$	$=$	$-5x+25$	Distribute inside parenthesis
$y$	$=$	$-5x+25$
