Parallel Perpendicular Slopes and Equations Slope Intercept

Which statement correctly describes the graph?

• The lines are parallel because they have different slopes.

• The lines are NOT parallel because they have different y-intercepts.

• The lines are parallel since they have the same slope and different y-intercepts.

• The lines are perpendicular.
