Question

What is the equation of the line passing through (2, –3) and parallel to the line y = –6x – 1 in standard form?

Answer 1

are you just pasting every homeowrk problem here? I dont think this will help. This is pretty much like the last 4

Answer 2

what is standard form?

Answer 3

y = mx+b and you know m so use the point to find b

Answer 4

Answer 5

4000

Answer 6

if y = -3, x = 2, and m = -6 what is b?

Answer 7

Parallel means that the line will have the same slope as the reference equation.
Standard form is, by definition, Ax + By = C. The original equation is in the form y = mx + b, so we convert it.

y = 6x-1
y - 6x = -1

Now, the new line passes through (2, -3). We can write this in point-slope form to make it easier and convert to standard form:
y1 - y0 = m(x1- x0)
y +3 = 6(x-2)
(because subtracting from a negative is addition)
Now convert to standard form:
y+3=6x - 12
y - 6x + 3 = -12
y - 6x = -15

Answer 8

I feel we are wasting our time

Lol maybe ...
