Without an equality sign the terms given can't be considered to be an equation.
But straight lines are parallel to each other if they have the same slope and different y intercepts.

What equation represents a line that is parallel to the line reprensented by the equation y equals -2 plus 5?
I assume the question should be y = -2x + 5? The equation of a line that is parallel to that line is any line that begins 7 = -2x ... after the -2x any number may be added or subtracted. Parallel lines have the same slope. In the original equation, the slope is -2.
Which equation has a its graph a line parallel to the graph of -2x - 4y 3?
When the equation of a line is parallel to another line the slope remains the same but the y intercept changes
What does it mean when a linear equation does not have a slope?
You get a straight line. as in 2x + y. * * * * * Wrong! 2x + y is not a line, it is an expression. The standard form of the equation of a line is y = mx + c where m is the slope. If there is no slope, then m = 0 and so the equation becomes y = c. This is a straight line parallel to the x-axis.
What equation represents a line parallel to the graph of 2x - 4y equals 16?
2x-4y = 16 -4y = -2x+16 y = 1/2x-4 Any equation that has a slope of 1/2 but a different intercept of -4.
Which equation represents the line that passes through 0 0 and is parallel to the line passing through 2 3 and 6 1?
The equation in slope-intercept form would be y=-2x

What is parallel to y equals 2x 5?
All lines that have the same slope are parallel to each other. To determine which lines are parallel to the give equation, you must first have to determine the slope of the equation. Notice that your equation is written in y = mx + b form, where m represents slope. In this case, m = 2. Any equation with a slope of 2 is parallel to your given line. For examples of lines that would be parallel, the following are all parallel: y = 2x y = 2x + 1 y = 2x + 2 y = 2x + 100

What is the slope of a line parallel to 4x plus 2y equals 5?
Y = -2x + 5 so the slope of this equation, along with the slopes of parallel equations, is -2
What equation of a line that is parallel to y equals -2x plus 2?
y = -2x+4 It can be any equation providing the slope is the same but the y intercept is different
What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x y 4 -2 - 2?
1) Solve the given equation for "y". The resulting equation will be in slope-intercept form, so you can immediately read off its slope. 2) Any line parallel to that line will have the same slope.
What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 2x+y=62x+y=6. Fully reduce your answer.?

Which choice would be the equation of a parallel to the line represented by this equation y2x-3?
If you mean y = 2x-3 then the parallel equation will have the same slope of 2 but with a different y intercept
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y -2x?
y - 2x is not an equation. If that is supposed to be y = 2x then the slope is 2. Or, written as a slope, would be 2/1
