What is the defining characteristic of parallel lines?

They never intersect

What must be true about the gradients of two parallel lines?

They are equal

If line 1 has gradient m1=3m_1 = 3, what is the gradient of a line parallel to it?

m2=3m_2 = 3

Which line is parallel to y=2x+3y = 2x + 3?

y=2x−1y = 2x - 1

What makes two lines parallel rather than identical?

Same gradient, different y-intercepts

Which formula helps find a line through point (x1;y1)(x_1; y_1) with gradient mm?

y−y1=m(x−x1)y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Find the equation parallel to y=2x−1y = 2x - 1 through point (−1;1)(-1; 1).

y=2x+3y = 2x + 3

What is the gradient of a line with angle of inclination 153.4°153.4°?

−0.5-0.5

Convert y−2x+1=0y - 2x + 1 = 0 to gradient-intercept form.

y=2x−1y = 2x - 1
