Question

Line that is parallel to the like 2y-4x=10 and goes through the point (-3,-7)

Answer 1

Lines that are parallel have the same slope so first you must put the equation into

y=mx+b (slope intercept form)

\[2y=4x+10\]
\[y=2x+5\]

now that you know the slope (m) , you can use the point slope form

\[y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\]

where

\[(x_1,y_1)\] is a point on the line you are trying to find the equation to

Answer 2

yes i need to find the equation

Answer 3

i got y=2x+1
is this right?

Answer 4

\[y-(-7)=2(x-(-3)\]
\[y+7=2(x+3)\]
\[y+7=2x+6\]
\[y+7-7=2x+6-7\]
\[y=2x-1\]

Answer 5

thanks
