Question

What is the equation of the line passing through (1, 7) and parallel to the line y = –x + 5 in standard form?

Answer 1

y=-x+6

Answer 2

medal please

Answer 3

you're wrong @ivan514

Answer 4

since it has to be parallel use the same slope and then just find b by plugging in (1,7)

in to y=mx+b

Answer 5

x-y=8?

Answer 6

y=mx+b
7=(-1) (1) + b

7=-1+b
b=8

Answer 7

what is that in standard form

Answer 8

y=-x+8

you mean ax+by+c=0

then it is this x+y-8=0 when you move the x and the 8 to the other side
