Question

Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (1, -5) and parallel to y = 2x + 4.

y = -2x + 7

y = 2x - 3

y = 2x - 7

y = -2x + 3

Answer 1

the parallel line will have a gradient of 2

so its in the form y =2x + b

to find the y- intercept substitute the values from the point

x = 1 and y = -5

Answer 2

2x-y-7=0

Answer 3
