Equation of the line passing through (1, 2) and parallel to the line y = 3x – 1 is
A. y + 2 = x + 1
B. y + 2 = 3 (x + 1)
C. y – 2 = 3 (x – 1)
D. y – 2 = x – 1
Given equation of the line is y=3x-1
Now we find the slope of the above equation by comparing it with y=mx+b form
So m=3
Now, we find the equation of line passing through the point (1,2) and parallel to the given line
with slope=3
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-2=3(x-1)
Hence, the correct option is (c)
