A. would be the correct choice because the x+y hast to =1.

Answer: a. [tex]x+y=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Line CD passes through (0, 1) and is parallel to [tex]x+y=3[/tex].

We know that if two line are parallel then they have equal slopes.

Thus, the slope of line = slope of line [tex]x+y=3[/tex].

[tex]x+y=3\\\Rightarrowy=3-x[/tex] when we compare this to the standard linear equation  [tex]y=mx+c[/tex].we get  [tex]m=-1[/tex].

Hence, slope of CD (m)= -1

Now, the equation of line CD passing through (0,1) is given by :-

[tex](y-1)=m(x-0)\\\Rightarrow(y-1)=(-1)x\\\Rightarrow x+y=1[/tex]

Thus, the equation of line CD = [tex]x+y=1[/tex]
