What is the equation of the line in standard form that passes through the point (–1, 4) and is parallel to the line y = 2x – 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Parallel lines have same slope. So, what is the slope of the new line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x - 3? or Just 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x + y = -6 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 is the slope. y = mx + b is the line where m is slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = 2x + b is the new line. To find b, you need to plug in x=1 and y=4 (because this line passes through -1,4.
