__**EQUATION 1:​**__ 1. y = 3x + 2; y = -1/2x + 4 x + 2y = -4; y - 5 = 3(x - 1)

quations must be in slope intercept form.

The 1st two equation are already in slope intercept form.

y - 5 = 3(x - 1) distribute 3(x - 1) y - 5= 3x - 3 add 5 to both sides y = 3x + 2 The 1st and 3rd equations are parallel to each other because they both have the same slope which is 3.
