Question

Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (2, -4) and parallel to y = 3x - 6.

y = 3x - 10

y = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 2

y = 3x - 12

Answer 1

plug in the values and see if it works
y = -4 = 3(2)-10

Answer 2

If it's parallel then the slopes are the SAME but the y-intercepts are DIFFERENT
So you know the slope in the new equation will be 3.

Answer 3

Which is obvious. Now use point-slope form or do what @zzr0ck3r said.

Answer 4

Point-Slope Form: \[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\]

Answer 5

Where (2, -4) are your \[(x _{1},y _{1})\]

Answer 6

Is it D?

Answer 7

B

Answer 8

O
