Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 3x − y = −3 and passes through the point (4, −2).

Answer 1

parallel = same slope.

Answer 2

-y=-3x-3
y=3x+3
So you need slope 3

Answer 3

y-(-2)=3(x-4)
Simplify, and you're good to go.

Answer 4

IS THIS CORRECT y = 3x − 6

Answer 5

no,
\[\Large -2 \ne 3(4)-6\]

Answer 6

y= 3x+c

solve for c:
\[\Large -2= 3(4)+c\]

Answer 7

C=6

Answer 8

\[\Large -2=12+c\]
\[\implies \Large -2-12 = +c\]

Answer 9

\[ \LARGE \implies-14=c\]

y=3x-14
