Which of the following equations best represents the relationship?
A. y = 3.5x
B. y = 35x
C. y = 1/35x
D. 35 = 1x

(y = 35x)

Step-by-step explanation: you get your answer to y which is the number of gallons used and x is the number of miles traveled; Meaning 35x (35 miles traveled) is y (1 gallon used).

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
