Identifying Slope and Y-Intercept Given Equation

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.

A second linear equation is graphed next to the equation y = 5x + 10. Which of the following could represent the slope and y-intercept of the line if the 2 lines are parallel?

• m = 10, y-int: (0, 5)

• m = 5, y-int: (0, 10)

• m = 5, y-int: (0, 4)

• m = 2, y-int: (0, 5)
