    Line A is parallel to line B if line A and B have the same slope and have the same or different y-intercept.

    Convert the standard form equation to slope-intercept form as it will be easier to see the slope.

    Solve for y.

    4x + 2y = 0

    2y = - 4x < - - Subtract 4x from each side

    y = - 2x < - - Divide both sides by 2

    In the slope-intercept form y = - 2x, a y-intercept of 0 is implied

    Now find a slope-intercept form equation that has the same slope as y = - 2x

    So, the answer is C y = - 2x + 3.

    Convert to slope - intercept form:-

    2y = - 4x

    y = - 2x so the slope of this line is - 2

    parallel lines have same slope

    So its C.
