In the standard (x,y) coordinate plane, which of the following lines goes through (3,4) and is parallel to y=2x+2?

Correct answer: B. y=2x-2

  • A. y = 1/2x + 2
  • B. y=2x-2
  • C. y = 2x + 4
  • D. y = 2x + 10
  • E. y = 3x + 2

Explanation

Parallel lines have the same slope, so a line parallel to y = 2x + 2 should also have a slope of 2. Option B, y = 2x - 2, meets this criteria and passes through the point (3,4), making it the correct answer. Other options either have incorrect slopes or do not pass through the specified point.
