do you know how to write slope intercept form of an equation of the line passing through the given pint and is parallel to the graph of the equation (3,20 Y=X+5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, what does 'parallel' mean in terms of two slopes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as in two lines on a graph witht he same slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right! So if we're trying to find the slope-intercept form of the line parallel to the one given, that means we need two pieces of information: the slope m, and the intercept b. We know the slope m, because the two slopes need to be the same if they're parallel.

How could we find the intercept then?
