Question

What is the equation of the line in standard form that passes through the point (–1, 4) and is parallel to the line y = 2x – 3?

Answer 1

Parallel lines have the same slope. So slope = 2

Enter all the values into the point-slope formula, so
y - 4 = 2 ( x -(-1))
y = 2 x +6

Answer 2

x – 2y = 6

x + 2y = 6

2x – y = –6

2x + y = –6

Answer 3

Those are my options

Answer 4

I got that same answer you did but it is not an option

Answer 5

Just add subtract terms from each side....

y = 2x+6
y-6 = 2x
-6 = 2x - y

Answer 6

sorry....should have read add/subtract terms
